Yes "Joy of Living" does it for me too.
In my mother's final days and for while after, Eric Bogle's "Belle of Broughton", as well as one of Tommy Sands' songs decribing his own mother's later problems with dementia.
And "Crossing the Bar" - as sung by Craig Morgan and Robson.(Ear-marked for my father's funeral if/when that comes: no sign yet at 93+!)
