***************

Don't spend too much time in mourning
Tears are for the sad
I left to be with Jesus
And this should make you Glad.
Don't waste your hours in grieving,
No need to feel distress
I'm tired of lifes frustrations
and had to get some rest.
Don't vex yourself with questions
or try to reason why
Life here for me was ended;
It came my time to die.
Don't lose the love I gave you,
feed it with your care,
Grow it with devotion
and spread it everywhere.
Don't fret because my leaving
Came in such a way
We'll have another meeting
In God's Eternal day.
