Intro - - Verse 1 Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free, I’ve traded all my burdens for a peace that’s carryin’ me. The weight I held, the storms I knew, All faded in a moment when the light broke through. I know your heart is heavy with the space I leave, But love don’t end just ’cause a soul finds peace. I’m closer now than I’ve ever been— Just listen in the quiet, you’ll hear me again. Chorus Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free, I’m where the hurt can’t follow, where the chains can’t reach. I’m in the arms of mercy, where the river runs sweet— Don’t grieve for me… for now I’m free. Verse 2 I’m in the Sunday choir when the voices rise, In the hallelujahs liftin’ through the Tennessee skies. I’m in the prayers you whisper when the night gets long, In the strength you feel when you thought you had none. I didn’t disappear, I just stepped ahead, To a place where the weary finally rest their head. And every tear you cry is a seed of grace— Love keeps growin’ even when it leaves this place. Chorus Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free, I’m where the hurt can’t follow, where the chains can’t reach. I’m in the arms of mercy, where the river runs sweet— Don’t grieve for me… for now I’m free. Bridge One day your heart will feel the truth: Heaven’s not far, it’s reachin’ for you. And when your journey brings you home to me, We’ll dance in the light of eternity. Final Chorus Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free, I’m where the broken finally heal completely. Let the memories hold you, let the love stay deep— I’m gone from sight… but I’m still yours to keep. Don’t grieve for me… for now I’m free.
