Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free
I'm following th' 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
Tasks left undone must stay that way
I've found that place at the close of the day
Be not burdened with times of sorrow
I leave you the sunshine of tomorrow
My life's been full, I savoured 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 heart and share with me
God wanted me now he set me free
