For I am ready to be offered and the time of my 
departure is at hand. I have fought a good fight, I 
have finished my course. I have kept the faith. 
II Timothy 4:6-7 
Ive done my best 
Ive sung my song 
Ive done some good 
Ive done some wrong 
Now shall I go and take my stand, to be with Him in 
that unknown land. He knows my heart and every 
thought. He knows what pain and joy Ive brought. 
And by his love I have been taught, that one day I must 
go. He knows my soul is weak and blind, so full of 
fear with a troubled mind. And so good-nite. Ive 
stood the test. I go with Him, I need some rest.

Dont Cry 
Dont cry for me unless they re tears of joy, 
For I am overjoyed. 
Dont sing for me unless they re songs of happiness, 
For I am oh  so happy. 
There is no need for you to worry about me now, 
For I am walking with God. 
Hes been with me through my hardest times. 
And helped me through to overcome every odd. 
So when you think of my younger days and how I used to be. 
Know that above all eke the Lords been good to me. 
I suffer no longer, 
I pain no more. 
Ive swam across the ocean, now 
Ive finally reached the shore.
