Now you’re gone by Rosco Gordon talks about how a woman left or died. He is talking about the heartache he feels without her there. How all the plans they made will never be able to happen because she is gone.

In the last stanza, the narrator says, “My hope and treasure lies above” (line 54). Everything that the narrator needs is in heaven. While she may seem a little resentful, she is able to accept the destruction of her house and turn it into love for G-d. The idea of predestination makes an appearance again as the narrator knows that this is what G-d wanted.
