I took God’s Hand when I heard Him call;

I turned my back and left it all.

If my parting left an unhappy void;

Then fill it with remembered joy.

My life’s been full, I savoured much;

Good friends, good times,

a loved one’s touch.

A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss;

Ah yes those things on earth you miss.

Do not feel heavy with undue grief;

Instead remember our belief,

Of Heaven where all shines warm and bright;

We live forever in God’s eternal light.

Lift up your hearts and share with me;

God wanted me now, He set me free.
