Don't Grieve For Me
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 his call; I turned my back and left it all.
I could not stay another day, to laugh, to love, to work, to play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way; I've found that peace at the end of the day.

If my parting has left a hurtful void, then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared, a laugh, or a kiss; Ah, and yes, these things too I will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow, I wish you 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 your heart and share with me; God wanted me now, He set me free.
