Appropriate songs to play at funeral for a child?

Question

I have a friend who just lost their infant son, and want to play several songs before and during the funeral. Are there any songs about the death of a child, or infant?

Answer 1

I lost my newborn almost a year ago. I have some suggestions.
Glory Baby by Watermark
Precious child (cant remember the artist)
To where you are by Josh Groban
These are some of the many songs I played at my baby's memorial.

Answer 7

How very sad.... A good song would be Eric Clapton's song "Tears in Heaven" He wrote it for his 4 year old son who died. It always makes me cry. Another one would be the Brad Paisly song "When I Get Where I'm Going" Billy Dean's "Let Them Be little" is good too.

Answer 8

ooooh i hate seeing a childs funeral worse than anything but i would play true colors by cyndi lauper because its inspirational. The only bad thing is it will make you cry even more cause the musical part is so touching.

DEFINITELY "Calling All Angels" by Jane Siberry. It's such a poignant song. When I first heard it at the end of the movie Pay It Forward, I was in tears.
