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 it 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 tat place at the close of the day.

If my passing has left a void
Then fill it with remembered joy,
A friendship share, 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 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.

One Eagle's Wings

And He will raise you up
on eagle's wings,
bear you on
the breath of dawn,
Make you to shine--
like the sun,
and hold you in the palm

of His hand.
