When I Die

Its there among the flower roots Many laid to rest peaceful sleep Just cremate me all I ask Scatter me upon the earth Or perhaps the sky a breeze carried Maybe you just bury me deep For others to find later some season They may say it's just dirt in a vase But to earth I shall return Not just dust but one in God's love Bury me deep a river never wash When I Die, you can not bury me For in your heart holds memories dear Even those we thought break bond Still love we carry deep in there Loving another as God loved the other When I Die, just remember its short trip There we shall be again in the Heavens There life is in death for it be no suffering There I lay to rest, hoping I see you here In Heaven, I wait at gate your arrival Remember..I loved you when I was alive Love each other til end of time As Father loved you gave his Son Do also to the other, have a heart For time is only an instant A short breath away
