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 at heart,
Go to the friends we know,
And bury your sorrows
in doing good deeds:
Miss me, but let me go.
