Note: John you fought a long hard battle, Now rest in Peace.

MISS ME BUT LET ME GO

When I come to the end of the road
and the sun has set me free,
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 we once shared,
MISS ME BUT LET ME GO.

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

When you are lonley and sick at heart
Go to the friends we know
And bury your sorrows in doing good
deeds.

MISS ME, BUT LET ME GO.
