Miss Me - But Let Me Go
When I come to the end of the road and the sun has set for me, I want no rites in a gloom filled room, why cry fo r a soul set free? Miss me a little, but not too long, and not with your head bowed low,
remember the love we once shared, Miss me - but let me go. For th is journey we all m ust take, and each must go alone, it 's all a part of the M asters plan a step on my road home. When you are lonely and sick a t heart, go to the friends we know and bury your
Sorrow in doing good deeds, Miss me - but let me go.

Perhaps you telephone or visited during the hour of dismay; Perhaps you sent a dish of food to help us on the way, Perhaps you said a silent prayer th a t God might see us through; Perhaps you gave us words of Comfort, as onlyfriends can do, Perhapsyou sent a funeral spray, potted plant, or lovely bouquet; Whatever you did to console our grieved hearts; We shall be forever grateful, whatever the part.
