Shed not a tear
o�er your friend�s early bier,
When I am gone.
Smile when the slow tolling bell
you shall hear,
When I am gone.
Weep not for me
as you stand �round my grave,
Think who has died
His beloved to save,
Think of the crown
all the ransomed shall wear,
When I am gone.
Plant you a rose that shall bloom
o�er my grave,
When I am gone.
Sing a sweet song
such as angels may have,
When I am gone.
Praise ye the Lord that
I�m freed from all care,
Pray ye the Lord that
my joys ye shall share,
Look up on high
and believe that I�m there,
When I am gone.
