After I Am Gone

After I am gone

My body laid to rest

The earth will claim my atoms

Having given of my best

My body laid to rest

With seed and stone I'll lie

Having given of my best

When it is my time to die

With seed and stone I'll lie

And after winter, comes spring

When it is my time to die

But know I'll go on living

And after winter, comes spring

The earth with claim my atoms

But know I'll go on living

After I am gone
