Bittersweet Moments

It is time to let go of the pain
And let my tears start falling down with the rain

But I cry not because I am sad
These tears just mean that I am glad

Here I will watch you suffer no more
To your kingdom you will go to be with our Lord

I will not be selfish and ask you to stay
Because I am not the one with that price to pay

This is the moment I will rejoice for you
Your work here on earth with us is through

It is never easy trying to say, "Good-bye"
That is why I am simply saying, "Until next time"

Only because I know when it is my time to go
I will see you standing there at the end of that gold paved road
