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 him call
I turned my back and left it all.
If my parting has left a void
Then fill it with remembered joy
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss
Oh yes, these things I too will miss.
I could not stay another day
To laugh, to love,to work, to play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way.
I found that peace at the close of day.
Be not burden with times of sorrow
I wish you the 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 hearts and peace to thee
Appreciation
