W. Kirk Jerome McKeuie MISS ME BUT LET ME G O When I come to the end of the road A nd the sun has set for me I want no rites in a gloom-filled room. Why cry for a soul set free? Miss me a little-but not too long A nd not with your head bowed low. Remember the love that we once shared, Miss me-but let me go. For this is a journey that we all must take A nd each must go alone. It's all a part of the Master 's plan, A step on the road to home. When you are lonely and sick o f heart Go to the friends we know A nd bury your sorrows in doinggood deeds. Miss Me-But Let me Go. .. .Acknowledgements...
