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

 I’m following the path God laid for me.

 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. 

 Tasks left undone must stay that way. 

 I found that peace at close of day.

 If my parting has left a void, 

 then fill it with 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 has been full, I’ve savored much. 

 Good friends, good times, a loved ones touch. 

 Perhaps my time seemed all too brief 

 don’t lengthen it now with undue grief. 

 Lift up your hearts and share with me. 

 God wanted me now; He set me free."
