Miss Me But Let Me Go

When I come to the end of the road
And the sun has set for me
I want no rites in a gloom-filled room.
Why cry for a soul set free?

Miss me a little–but not too long
And not with your head bowed low.
Remember the love that we once shared,
Miss me–but let me go.

For this is a journey that we all must take
And each must go alone.
It’s all a part of the Master’s plan,
A step on the road to home.

When you are lonely and sick of heart
Go to the friends we know
And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds.
Miss Me–But Let me Go!

Remember Me

To the living, I am gone
To the sorrowful, I will never return
To the angry, I was cheated.

But to the happy, I am at peace
And to the faithful, I have never left.

I cannot speak, but I can listen
I cannot be seen, but I can be heard.

So as you stand upon the shore
Gazing at the beautiful sea, remember me
As you look in awe at a mighty forest.

And in its grand majesty, remember me
Remember me in your hearts,

In your thoughts, and the memories of the
Times we loved, the times we cried,

the battle we fought and the times we laughed
For if you always think of me,

I will never have gone.
