IN MEMORIAM



“I’M FREE!”

Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free
I’m following the path God has laid you see
I took His hands when I heard His call
I turned my back and left it all.
I could not stay another day
To laugh, to love, to work, to play
Task left undone must stay that way,
I found peace at the close of day.
If 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’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 hearts and peace to thee…
God waited me now, He set me free.

Let us pray,

Eternal rest grant unto them O, Lord,
And let Your perpetual light shine unto them.

From the gates of the damned
Deliver their souls O, Lord.

And may they rest in peace.
Amen.
