Iove this song, but it looks like you got some lyric issues. one, It's "his rod and his staff" not riding a staff. two, "tell a for the ark" three, "now b for the beast" four, "eat all the children that would not be good" good vid otherwise, and sorry to be so unsensitive to all.
i deddicate this to my nana an all my whanau who have all saddly passed on may uz all lay down and take ur rest rip nana my one and only queen of harts 24-12-1916 ; 18-11-2009
okay i love this song and it reminds me so much of my uncle that past away. :( he was one of the best uncles anyone could ever ask for. we love you uncle wally!!!!! R.I.P. HAPPY THANKSGIVING AND MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love The Dead, and always will, but this version is superior in every way..... thank you.....and I will still listen to Jerry croak out these verses....
i heard this for the first time at a funeral and couldnt remember the title. What a lovely song and rendition form the man Aaron Neville. Lovely music and words
I am sorry for all the people who have passed and my prayers will be with them and the family and friends because i had two people die in a head on car accident and i found this song and it makes me cry every time, but i know they are happy where every they are. :,')
For a very great childhood friend that lost her life today...Helena H. Sartin you will be missed on this earth. Hugs to her family :-) God Bless all of you :)
SEARCH: ADEAZE TONGAN JAM..... ITS ANOTHER VERSION OF THIS SONG.... THE BEGINNING IS IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE AND THEN IN ENGLISH....... WAY BETTER!!!!!!!!
For all of those who think a real man can't cry or show emotion....A real man is not emotionless and stoick at all times! A real man knows when to show his emotions! There is a time for everything, a time for crying,and a time for smiling!
@1KaoticPeace ---my beautiful wife just passed and we played Aaron's "Jesus loves me" and I cried like a little kid and I still cry but it does'nt make me a less man.
This version was played at my big brother's funeral 2 months ago. It was just so fitting. RIP Brother.
PS: Would it be possible for the poster, tulaman, to correct the lyrics at 1.45: rather than "he's riding a staff" it should be "His rod and his staff"
Thank you so much for posting such a beautiful song.
once upon a time you was my everything then you just had a calliing from above and you were gone i miss you my friend,brother i`m a lost sheep i pray you are the good shepard and one day come and find the lost lambs
I hadn't heard Aaron's cover before. Thanks for sharing it! It's beautiful. I was actually searching for Nicolette Larson and Linda Ronstadt's version. They sing it as a lullaby and change the lyrics to "lay down my sweet baby......lay your head on your mother's breast"
No..but I have it on a bootleg Ronstadt c.d. compilation that an online friend sent me about ten years ago. It's beautiful. Nicolette on lead and Linda harmonizing. I don't know if they ever released it. If they did, it must have been on one on NL's records.
he tohu aroha tenei ki taku whanau i pa mai ai i te ringa kino o te mate moe mai ra i roto i nga ringa aroha o to matou matua nui i te rangi.RIP...MA TE WA MATOU E TUTAKI ANO
My bother Will passed away on January 25th 2009 and I wanted to dedicate this song to him then,But i could not figure out who the artist was OR The Title of the song.
It is never too late,this song is the right song from me to him,I miss you so much My bro, See you when its My turn.xxx Brother For Life
This was the song was played at my father's funeral. I cried instantley when hearing it because he always told me to have this song played. I miss my father, he played a big part in my life. I love you and miss you dad, ill see you again.
i listened to this in the car with my dad after his mom had just passed away. we sang it together. i thought we were all cried out, but i was wrong. i will always remember this song. God is our refuge. always.
My dad use to play this all the time after my big brother died. I always heard him quietly crying through out the song. I know it might not sound manly but it makes me want to cry everytime I hear this song.
@93gtir me too...this was a farewell song. my mom passed away last xmas and whenever i hear this song i sing along and think of her. i bid ya goodnight, goodnight, gooooooodnight. :( miss ya mom
Really sorry to hear that - its a truly beautiful record and does not make you less of a man for showing emotion, especially in such tragic circumstances
I have loved this song ever since I heard it sung by Aaron Neville... it is very calming and inspiring. I have requested this song to be part of my funeral service.... along with Wildflowers don't care where they grow!
Well my friend this is ur "lonely" opinion. Who else you heard doing this gospel? With all my respect to the GD's but black gospel is only for black folks.
On one of the local blues radio programs in houston they play this song whenever any blues musician dies. Last year was an especially bad year. This is a great song and the best version I've heard.
