Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free. I'm following the path God has chosen 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 and play. Tasks left undone must stay that way; I've found now peace at the end of the day.

If my parting has left a void, then fill it with remembered joys. A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss; Oh yes, these things, I too will miss.

Be not burdened with time of sorrow, look for the sunshine of tomorrow. My life's been full, I savored much; good friends, good times, a loved ones touch.

Perhaps my time seems all too brief; don't lengthen your time with undue grief. Lift up your heart and peace to thee, God wanted me now- He set me free.
