Committal to follow at Holy Cross Catholic CemeteryI'M FREEDon't grieve for me, for now I'm freeI'm following the path God has chosen 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've now found peace at the end of day. If my 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 sorrowLook for the sunshine of tomorrow. My life's been full, I savored much;Good friends, good times, a loved ones touch.Perhaps my time seems all to brief;Don't lengthen your pain with undue grief.Lift up your heart and peace to thee,God wanted me now-He set me free.Don't Cry for MeDon't sit there and cry for me. I'm resting in peace can't you see? I've already run my race, Now I want to see my Savior's face. Sodry your eyes and stop your crying. Don't worry about dying. This isa debt we all must pay. We all must sleep right on away. Don't cryfor me please be strong. You'll be sad but not for long. I want youto make preparation every day, then you'll be ready to come my way.I was with you for many years, we had our doubts we had our fears, But I've grown tired and I need to rest. You know that God only wants the best.Just look upon me with a smile. Thank God that I was with you for a while.I'll be waiting in Heaven somewhere, come on up, I'll be waiting for you here.
