WHEN I AM GONE!

 

WHEN I AM GONE!

When I travel to the end of the world

When the person in me ceases to breathe 

When the brain in my skull suffocates 

Cry over my grave never 

Can't you see the way I traipse

Like a king, they will lift me above 

On a bier, I will be carried about

A sign of honour and glory 

Why cry for me when I die?

Remember, I will be taken upstairs 

To the center of my worship and believe 

I will be wining with the best of cohorts

I can feel the coming of a time

When my name will be called and re-called

I will try to answer but I can't 

That is when you will know I'm gone

When I was born

remember, you danced

Why cry for me when I die

Trust I'm fit for a walk 

To the land of God and angels

When I die you should cry no more

For I will be taken to a zone of rest

Pray for my soul to dwell

In the land of peace and serenity!
