Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free I'm following the path God laid for me. I took His hand when I heard His call I turned my back and left it all. I could not stay another day, to laugh, to love, to work or pray. Tasks left undone must stay that way, I found that peace at the close of day.

You left without a warning, Not even saying good-bye, And I can't seem to stop, Asking the question why? Nothing will ever be the same, The halls are empty without your laughter, But I know you're in Heaven, Watching over us and looking after.

Your smile could brighten anyone's day, No matter what they were going through, And I know everyday for the rest of my life,...
