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

Task left undone must stay that way.

May my love of flowers for all to see

Make each spring bud a remembrance of me.

If my parting has left a void

Fill it wiht memories of times enjoyed.

The family shared was a gift of mine,

This I'll miss as I leave it behind.

Be not burdened with times of sorrow.

I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow

My life's been full, I savored much.

Strong family, friends, a loved one's touch.

Perhaps my time seemed all too brief,

Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.

Lift up your head and share with me

God wanted me now, He set me free!
