I’m Free

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 place 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 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 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 heart and share with me God wanted me now.  He set me free.
