@dooBdoo, "It is Well With My Soul" is a beautiful song and BYU's Vocal Point does a great job with it. (I have a couple of Vocal Point's CD's). Do you know the true story behind the song? It will tug at your heartstrings for sure.

 

This past December, on PBS, they showed The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square Christmas Concert from Salt Lake City. Hugh Bonneville did a dramatic narration of the true story of the Spafford family while actors reenacted it. Then the Tabernacle Choir beautifully sang, "It is Well With My Soul."

Here is the video of Hugh Bonneville's narration and the Choirs singing of "It is Well With My Soul." (Skip the 30 second ad at the beginning of the video).

            @cimeranrose❤️ , Thank you for thinking of me and sharing these!    A dear poster, @Teddie❤️ , told me of the origins of the song when I mentioned it about a year or so ago.   It made it even more powerful then, and your contributions here are so emotional and touching.   Thank you, again.  And thank you, @house_cat, for this thread.   We often find profound inspiration in, and from, our fellow posters, and for that I'm grateful.❤️

I was thinking along the lines of the Funeral March, but with syncopation ...  and trumpets.

I have loved this song since I first heard it. I don’t know if it’ll happen but told my husband I want it blasting through the church at my funeral, it’s that meaningful to me. 

 

Here it is.  It’s Forever, sung by PFR.

Another special one is I Can Only Imagine by MercyMe. So encouraging!
