Im Free
Dont grieve for me, for now Im free
Im 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 lifes been full, I savored much
Good friends, good times, a loved ones touch.
Perhaps my time seems all to brief
Dont lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and share with me,
God wanted me now, He set me free.
