| | I cantored for another funeral this week...
They asked that I sing the Psalm Shepard Me O God.
I am always moved by this song.
"Shepard me O God, beyond my wants, beyond my fears, from death into life..
God is my shepherd, so nothing shall I want, I rest in
the meadows of faithfulness and love, I walk by the quiet waters of
peace.
Gently you raise me and heal my weary soul, you lead me
by pathways of righteousness and truth, my spirit shall sing the music
of your Name "
At the very most, there was about twenty people in the church for this woman laying in the casket. It was a meager number to me, and I started to feel sorry for the lady. But when I looked up from the pulpit...every one of them were crying.
Who needs a fanfare of friends/family at a funeral when you know there are at least twenty people in this world that love you with all their hearts.
Wow...and I know I'm really emo lately...it's been raining all the time. =P
