“Miss me a little, but let me go,
When 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 all must take,
And we must go alone,
It’s all a part of the Master’s plan,
A step on the road to Home.”
