I know words can not take the hurt away! When we lost our Mom in 2006 and Dad in 2010. When Mom left a friend sent me "I'm Free"! Whenever I am feeling sad I read "I'm Free" and the words comfort me. May these words bring you comfort.
I'm Free
Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free,
I'am following the path God 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 play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way,
I found that peace at close of 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 will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow,
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life's been full; I've 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 you heart and share with me,
God wanted me now, He set me free.
With love and prayers,
Lois
