Sorry for your loss VA

here's a song:
Until You're In My Arms Again-Prince
Reflections-Prince

Why should I feel discouraged?
Why should the shadows come?
Why should my heart feel lonely?
And long for heaven and home

When Jesus is my portion
A constant friend is He
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches over me
His eye is on the sparrow
and I know He watches me

I sing because I'm happy
I sing because I'm free
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches me (He watches me)
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches (I know)
He watches
I know He watches me

I sing because I'm happy
I sing because I'm free
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches me (He watches me)
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know, He watches me
He watches me
He watches
I know that he
He watches over me.

sorry my friend:(

"Better Days" - Dianne Reeves

Andy, I am deeply sorry to hear about your loss. Please know we are here for you when the pain hurts too much

For your mother:

Lightning Crashes

lightning crashes, a new mother cries
her placenta falls to the floor
the angel opens her eyes
the confusion sets in
before the doctor can even close the door

lightning crashes, an old mother dies
her intentions fall to the floor
the angel closes her eyes
the confusion that was hers
belongs now, to the baby down the hall

oh now feel it comin' back again
like a rollin' thunder chasing the wind
forces pullin' from the center of the earth again
I can feel it.

lightning crashes, a new mother cries
this moment she's been waiting for
the angel opens her eyes
pale blue colored iris,
presents the circle
and puts the glory out to hide, hide






For you:


Sunshine

It's getting crazy in this place I'm in
No room to breathe, my head's in a spin
No tears to cry cuz I've cried them all
Nothing to cling to, to catch me if I fall

And I know that I can't, wait for help to come
Gotta find the strength in me, to race another run.

I still live, for the sunshine
don't give up on the sunshine
I still live, for the sunshine
Sunshine...yeah, the sunshine

Soon I know that this world will end
But I hope to find peace within
A kind of cure, for all the ills
Even when I know most deaths are senseless kills

And I know that I can't wait for help to come
Gotta find the strength in me, race another run.

I still live, for the sunshine
don't give up on the sunshine
I still live, for the sunshine
oh the Sunshine...yeah, the sunshine.....

Hey Dude. I'm very sorry to hear that, My Man. Two songs automatically come to mind. "Jesus" by Shirley Caesar. She wrote that song after her mother passed away, and "I Won't Be Satisfied" by Walter Hawkins and the Love Alive Choir. My condolensces.

your mom was in the hospital and sick... so it was better for her... the bible says to be absent from the body is to be present with the lord.... and that is a celebration....

now I still need my mom soo much.... so i don't want jesus to take her just yet... but when i get older and if he wants her... he can take her... and me too...

Thank you so much everyone. Those were some really special and great song dedications. I can't tell you guys how much better I felt when I logged onto the org and saw this thread was three pages long. You guys have really come out in full force and showed lots of love. I can't tell you have much I appreciate it. I know we're all just faceless screen names in the internet but this thread has been really comforting after all the family and friends have left and gone home. In a way, we are all friends right here on the org.

Anyway, the funeral was absolutely beautiful. I saw a lot of my mother's friends that I have not seen in ages. Beautiful flowers and plants were sent. The pain didn't hit me until I got ready to leave the house to go the funeral. I broke down so hard that every nerve in my body was tingling. I didn't think I was going to be able to drive so I tried to call someone to pick me up. I couldn't reach anyone because everyone had already left. I had no choice but to pull myself together, get my strength, and drive myself because my mother deserved my presense at her funeral. I arrived late and one of my best friends said....."He wasn't tore up. Y'all know him. He just has to make a fashionable entrance".

The songs played were "Hard To Say Goodbye To Yesterday" by G.C. Cameron and "Jesus Is Love" by The Commodores. The organist played "Amazing Grace" and "In The Garden". I would have loved to have ended the ceremony with "Do Not Pass Me By" by MC Hammer to liven things up but you know some people would just not understand.

Anyway, once again, thanks. You guys are the best!

That's so nice. I like that. Thanks.

Thank you so much. As soon as I get to feeling better, you better believe I'm gonna come back in full force keepin' it all the way live.

Oh, I absolutely love you for that! My mother was always a very large woman and we used to joke with her about that song. When she died, she was so much smaller than we had ever seen her because she wouldn't eat because her brain was telling her that she couldn't swallow. I would much rather have my overweight mother. I did make her laugh though. I said...."If this is your crazy idea of a diet, you need to give it up. We ain't never had a small mama and we don't want one now".

I just wanted to give you my condolences vainandy. I will keep you in my prayers.
Songs I can think of:

I Will Remember You by Sarah McLachlan
A Song For Mama by Boyz II Men
Angel by Srah McLachlan
Purple Rain by Prince

Thank you. I see we think alike and that's exactly what I did last night. I played as many songs that I could that I remembered that she liked. I played some of her favorite slow jams but you know I also had to play a lot of her favorite "ass shakers" as I could to ease the pain.

Thanks. I checked it and I really appreciate it. Thanks, again.

Thanks Alisa. That is so true.

Sorry to hear about your loss man. I am very close to my mom and no matter what you do you can never replace the memories you have with your mother but you can always cherish them and let god take care of her. Keep the faith.
My song dedication is
EWF-Burnin Bush

Sorry for your loss, how about "someday will be together" by Dianna Ross & the supremes.

My condolences to you and your family.....Revelation 21:4
