Kelsey Waldon - My Epitaph lyrics

When I go from this life, let me go in peace
I don't want your marble at my head and feet
Don't gather around me, oh
Just to weep and moan
And where that I'm goin', I won't be alone

The flowers you give me
Please give them today
Don't waste their beauty on cold
Lifeless clay
One rose with love could do so much good
And I think all would give it
If they just understood

Now God gives life freely
And then He takes it away
What we do for each other, oh
Let us do it today for we have no promise
That tomorrow will come
Don't sing my praises after I'm gone

When life has departed, it's not me anymore
Just a form that has suffered
A still heart that was sore
For the soul that has blossomed, oh
It don't need you anymore
So let it go freely to God's evermore
So let it go freely to God's evermore
