My Time of Departing

         My Time of Departing

When comes my time of departing
On a journey to that distant land
Let there be no deep sorrow
For I’m included in the plan

Remember the good time we tended
Those memories may long sustain
For though our song has ended
We shall again sing our refrain

For life here is not so precious
It’s only a brief prelude
To a richer and fuller time
Where our joy shall never conclude
