When my father in law was dieing I sang to him. It was a Psalm
Psalm 121
I lift my eyes up
Unto the Mountains
Where does my help come from?
My help comes from YOU
Maker of heaven
Creator of the Earth
Oh how I need you Lord
You’re my only hope
You’re my only prayer
So I will wait for you
To come and rescue me
to come and give me Life!
It was such a peaceful moment, and he died a few seconds later. I hope he died with HOPE!
Will Smith’s Summertime Song (at least for people who have long winters)
