Re: I'm Free

Mom passed away on March 25th at 1 PM.

I'm Free

Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free.
I'm following that 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 found that peace at the close of day.

If my parting has left a void,
Then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,
Ah yes, these things I too 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 times, good friends, a loved one's touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief,
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.

Lift us your hearts and share with me,
God wanted me now; He set me free.
