I want no rites in a gloom-filled room, Why cry for a soul set free.

 Miss me a little, but not toolong, And now with your head bowed low.

Remember the love that we once shared , Miss me, but let me go

For this is the journey we all must take, And each must go alone.

It's 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 sorrow in doing good deeds,

 Miss me but let me go

When I must leave you for a little while

Please do not grieve and shed wild tears,

And hug your sorrow to you through the years

But start out bravely with a gallant smile

and for my sake and the name live on

And do all things the same

Feed not your loneliness on empty days

But fill with each waking hours in useful ways

Reach out your hand in comfort and in cheer

And I in return will comfort you

And hold you near and never never afraid to die

For I am waiting for you in the sky.
