Child’s Funeral Songs

Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life, and every fragment of a song holds a mirror to a past moment for someone.

The right song for the funeral or memorial service of a child helps us to see life through a child’s eyes – the unprejudiced way a child sees it.

We hope this selection of songs and videos will bring you some comfort.  I also urge to read  Planning A Funeral For A  Baby.    Whether  the service is for an infant or child, I outline 3 critical things that must be achieved in the service.

Ceremony speaks when words fail.  Music has tremendous impact. It is very powerful.   If the family can establish the significance of what has happened, they can begin to start the grieving process.
