Now
that I am Gone
Release Me, Let Me
Go
I have so many things to see
and do.
You must not tie yourself to
me with tears,
Be happy that we had the time
together.
I gave you my love, you can
only guess
how much you gave to me in
happiness.
I thank you for the love each
of you have shown,
But now it's time I traveled
on alone.
So grieve awhile for me, if
you must grieve
then let your grief be
comforted by
remembrance of my love and
trust.
It's only for a while that we
must part
So keep the good memories
within your heart.
Do not feel sad because I am
gone.
I was tired and God took me
home.
He knew I needed to rest so he
did what he
knew was best.
Do not grieve and shed wild
tears.
Just remember the times we've
shared throughout
the years.
Feed not your loneliness on
empty days,
But fill each waking hour in
useful ways.
Reach out your hand in comfort
and in cheer
And I, in turn will comfort
you and hold you near.
I know you do not understand
but I am happy.
He has my hand.
So don not have a broken
heart. Rejoice, for I have
a brand new start.
Dry your eyes and be happy for
me.
Thank God, I am finally free!
Lastly, I say to you:
"Never, never be afraid to
die,
For I am waiting for you in
the sky!
