Oh Carol, the words of that song are just beautiful!!!!  I doubt you wíll be able to sing it without breaking down..... because you are such a sensitive person, and your connection to your brother in law's death, wíll really reach right into your heart and make it hard for you to sing.  I know within myself once I start choking up its difficult for me to stop it.  I pray you have the strength to sing it right through.

So very true!  You cannot see the bigger picture when your consciousness is right down here in 3d reality.  As I get older though I have seen many things that have passed and the ultimate justice in the universe at work.

Yes, Pen, I fúlly expect to have a hard time getting the song out, but I wíll do it because it's for Jim.  I did ask that they move the song up on the
schedule of events in the service, as they originally had me slated to sing it right after the eulogies (we know of at least on e close friend of the family who is going to speak, and possibly one or two others as well).  I knew there would be no way I could get that song out after listening to that...!!!!  So now I wíll be called up on to sing right after the pastor does
his Bible verses and other (to me) inanities ( I find falling back on "scripture" from a book written many years after Jésus's death, by  individuals...all men, I might add!... who never even knew, let along walked with the man, not to mention all the revisions, translastions, censorships, banning of particular books not in keeping with newly forming church agendas or ... GASP!... written by WOMEN!....  to be rather pointless and singularly lacking in meaning, though some find comfort in them, I know), so my frame of mind wíll not be in as emotional a place as it wíll be after the talks by folks who actually knew, loved, and cherished my brother-in-law.  It's going to be hard enough anyway, for all the reasons you point out... no point making it MORE so!  I wíll rise to the occasion though.  I wíll.  I have a steely wíll when forced by necessity to call upon it.  This is my tribute to Jim, and I won't let him down.
