My Epitaph

When I go from this life, let me go in peace

Don't want your marble at my head and feet

Don't gather round me oh just to weep and moan

Where that I'm going I won't be alone

The flowers you give, please give them today

Don't waste their beauty on cold lifeless clay

One rose with love could do so much good

And I think all would give it if they just understood

Now God gives life freely, then he takes away

What we do for each other let us do it today

For we havе no promise that tomorrow will come

Don't sing my praises lord aftеr I'm gone

When life has departed it's not me any more

Just a form that has suffered, A still heart that was sore

For the soul that has blossomed, it don't need you anymore

So let it freely to God's evermore
