"Weep Not for Me"

Weep not for me

Because my suffering has come to cease

Instead view me as an apprentice

Who now walks with the Angels in peace.

No more sorrow, sadness or pain

Shall I endure, ever again

Now, I stand in the Kingdom of God

To help carry out His divine plan.

Weep not for me

Because I have no more need to roam.

My journey has ended; now I rest

In my Father’s heavenly home.

But if by chance you feel tearful,

Shed ones for the good times of glee

That we have shared all of my life

And know my love will be with you all eternity.

Love you always!

Your Family
