" Don't grieve for me, for now I'm Free.
I'm following the path God has chosen for me.
I took his hand when I heard him call I left it all.
For now I've found peace at the end of the day.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow,
But look for the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life's been full, I've savored much.
Don't lengthen your pain with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and Peace to thee.
God wanted me now. He set me free.

Although you may feel a bit torn apart,
please know that I'll always be in your heart.
Now fly like Butterflies as you can go,
I'm right there with you, more than you know."
