When I Die

I know that you're gonna miss me,
I don't want you to cry,
I know it's gonna be hard for you,
On the day that I die.
I want you to remember,
In your heart I'll always be near,
So when I look down from Heaven,
I don't want to see any tears.
I want you to know,
It wasn't what you did,
It just wasn't in God's plan,
For me to continue to live.
Someone Else needed me,
Someone up above,
He's been longing for awhile,
To wrap His arms around me in love.
Don't worry dear loved one,
I'll see you soon,
And while you're waiting,
You can look for me in the moon.
