WHEN I MUST LEAVE YOU
When I must leave you
For a little while, please do not
grieve and shed wild tears.
and hug your sorrow to you
through the years.
But start out bravely
With a gallant smile;
And for my sake and in my name
Live on and do all the things the same,
Feel not your loneliness
on empty days,
But fill each waking hour
In useful ways.
Reach out your hand in comfort
And in cheer
And I, in turn, will comfort you
Also hold you near;
And never, never be afraid to die
For I am waiting for you in the sky.
