I Rest Now ... 
No more sorrow will be mine" No more burdens will I bear No more heartaches will I endure Weighed down with endless care ... rest now! While here on earth I did my best A friend to all I tried to be This day, no regrets I have now While you are here look at me ... 
I am at rest. No more will I fret and worry About what a day might bring I go now to a city where Gods 
Holy angles sing. I am asleep, wake me not... 
I rest now.
