I’m Free
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 or play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way
I’ve now found peace at the end of the day.
If my parting lad left a void,
Then fill it with remembered joys.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a miss
Oh yes, these things, I too will miss.
Be not burdened with the times 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 to brief
Don’t lengthen your pain with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and peace to thee,
God wanted me now – He set me free.
