Don't cry for me as I leave this place
Know that I'm in God's saving grace
We are only apart for a short while
Come on and let me see a smile
I am fine, I'm not sick anymore
I can run and jump like never before
Oh, it is so beautiful here
The seas and lakes are crystal clear
It never grows dark and we never hunger
Everyone here is much younger
I am just fine and in a better place
Soon we will meet face to face
Keep your chin up and praise the Lord
Eternal life is our great reward
