As you hold me close in memory,
even though we are apart,
my spirit will live on,
there within your heart...
I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS
When you lean on trusted friends
and their caring hugs enfold you,
within their loving arms
I'll be there to hold you...
I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS
And beyond the far horizon
when we will finally be together,
where love will be eternal
and life will last forever...
I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS
I'm Free
Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free.
I'm following the path God has 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 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 void, then
fill it with remembered joys.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,
Oh yes, these things I too will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow.
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life has 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 undo grief.
Lift up your hearts and peace to thee.
God wanted me now; He set me free!!!
