Uncle Earl - My Epitaph lyrics

When I go from this life, let me go in peace Don't want your marble at my head and feet Don't gather round me oh just to weep and moan Where that I'm going I won't be alone The flowers you give, 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, then he takes away What we do for eachother let us do it today For we have no promise that tomorrow will come Don't sing my praises lord after I'm gone When life has departed it's not me any more Just a form that has suffered, A still heart that was sore For the soul that has blossomed, it don't need you anymore So let it freely to God's evermore
