I’m Free

Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free ,

I’m following the path, God has laid you see.,

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, to play.,

Tasks left undone must stay that way,

I found that peace at the close of day.,

If my parting has left a void,

Then fill it with remembered joy.,

A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,

Oh 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 savored much,

Good friends, good times, a loved one’s touch. ,

Perhaps my time seemed all too brief,

Don’t lengthen it now with undue grief,

Lift up your hearts and peace to thee,

God wanted me now; He set me free.
