Do not grieve for me now, I am free. I took His hand when I heard Him call. I turned my back and left it all. I could not stay another day. To laugh, to love, to work or play. Things left undone must stay that way. I have found peace at the dose of the day. If my parting has left a void, then fill it with a remembered joy. A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss. Ah, yes these things I too will miss. Be not burdened with times of sorrow. I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow. My life's been full, I have savored much. Good frwnds, good times, a loved one's touch. Perhaps my time seemed all to brief. Don't lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up your heart and share with me, God Wanted Me Now, He Set Me Free!
