Can you add anything more about the content of the song? In a lighter vein, Hoyt Axton sang: When I die, don't cry for me, Don't bury me at all, Place my livin', lovin', laughin' bones In a jar, all 'bout the hall, Honey, throughout the hall. |

In my Father's arms I'll be. The wound this world left on my soul Will all be healed and I'll be whole. Sun and moon will be replaced With the light of Jesus' face, And I will not be ashamed For my Savior knows my name. It don't matter where you bury me. I'll be home and I'll be free. It don't matter where I lay. All my tears will be washed away. Gold and silver blind my eyes. Temporary riches lie. Come and eat from heaven's store. Come and drink and thirst no more. So weep not for me, my friend, When my time below ends, For my life belongs to Him Who will raise the dead again. It don't matter where you bury me. |
