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 
Task left undone must stay that way 
I found peace at the close of day. 
If my parting has left a void, 
Then fill it with remembering joy. 
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss 
Ah yes, these things too I will miss. 
Be not burdened with time of sorrow, 
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow. 
my life's been full, I've savored much. 
Good friends, good times, a love 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.
