"I'm Free"

I could not stay another day,

to laugh, to love, to work or play,

tasks left undone must stay that way.

I found that place at the close of the 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 shall 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 lenghten it now with undue grief,

lift up your heart and share with me

God wanted me now, He's set me free.

No matter how brief it may seem

Each Life is purposed by God!

May we use our days to accomplish that purpose.

When  He welcomes us Home.

May He say, "Well done, thy good and faithful servant."
