I'm Free
Don't grieve for me,
for now I am free,
I'm following the path
God has laid you see.
I took his hand when
I heard his call,
I turned my back and left it all.
I could not stay another
day,
To laugh, to love, to work or play.
Tasks left undone must
stay that way,
I found the peace at
the end of day.
If my parting has left
a void,
Then fill it with remembered
joys.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,
O 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.
