      Although I'm not with you any more, I'm with the Lord above; Surrounded by His perfect peace, And filled with perfect love. There is no more worry, there is no more pain. No more suffering, no more sorrow, no more strain. So when tomorrow starts without me, Don't think we're far apart; For every time you think of me, I'm right hereā€¦in your heart.
