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 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 close of 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 times of sorrow I wish you all 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 it now with undue grief. Lift up your heart and share with me, God wanted me now, He has set me free.
