richardw Funeral Tunes, songs that heal (150* d) RE: Funeral Tunes, songs that heal 18 May 00


At my father' funeral (he was a musician) my wife and I led the service in singing "The Leaving Shanty".

It's time to go now, Haul away down channel haul away down channel It's the sail-ing tide.

When my time is over Haul away for heaven Haul away for heaven It's the sail-ing tide

etc.

Worked for me

By my father's request a friend also sang How great thou art.

At my mother's we stcuk to hymns she had requested, but told lots fo good stores.

Richard
