  • I’m Free Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m 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 close 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 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 peace to thee-

    God wanted me now; He has set me free.
