I tried to play this at my Moms funeral but could not make it all the way through There's a long and winding river from the darkness to the dawn it will carry and deliver you when you walk on No one here can say for certain what lies in the great beyond you'll pass through that parted curtain when you walk on you may grasp at the illusion the confusion of your mind but soon you will remember to surrender one more time You may fade out the doorway Fly away above the throne those who stay carry your story a little glory lingers on though the world you leave behind you will become a distant song every soul you loved will find you when you walk on when you walk on

Very sorry for your loss. Being in the ministry I have a lot of experience with funerals. Just yesterday in fact I helped officiate the funeral for one of the finest men I’ve ever known. My wife played and sang two songs on the piano that she had just a few days to learn. Funerals are never easy for anyone, so I try to put it all in perspective by remembering that if anything I say or do brings even a small amount of comfort to the family, it was a good day.

Well it's done. The service was yesterday and I didn't do quite as well as hoped and planned, but I did OK.
A week ago, my niece said she wanted me to do two songs, and I could pick whatever other George Strait song I thought would be good. I told her I'd give it a shot, and I went with If You Ain't Lovin', You Ain't Livin' -- I nice little 1-4-5 positive humorous song that not only was very appropriate lyrically, but was easy to work up on guitar. The first song, I Saw God Today, went a little rough -- I was blanking out on a few of the chorus chords, after relentless rehearsing for a few weeks. The emotion of the event got to me, I guess -- I'm not new at all to playing in front of a lot of people. But overall it was not too noticeable and I got a lot of nice comments. Then I played the second song and it went just fine. As much as I've performed, I guess stepping up to the mic and seeing all those people who are there to remember the same loved person, many I hadn't seen in 30-40 years, can hit you in an unexpected way. It sure did me. But the effort and sentiment was clearly appreciated by all as far as I could tell and it was an honor to be asked.
