Whats a good country song to help deal with someone close to you that just passe!
Question: "Holes in the Floor of Heaven" Steve Wariner ...helped me handle when my grandpa Kenny died. "Go Rest High on the Mountain" by Vince Gill (w/ Patty Loveless) is another good one...just be careful with both cause they could make you cry harder.
My condolences to you and you family - hope these help.

Grandpa (tell us 'bout the good ole days) - The Judds
"Go Rest High" (On That Mountain) by Vince Gill.
Outstanding song and very comforting as well.
Wherever You Will Go ,by The Calling.......not really country but good.

So Sorry,
Brad Paisley (Feat. Dolly Parton) “When I Get Where I'm Going”
When I get where I'm going
on the far side of the sky.
The first thing that I'm gonna do
Is spread my wings and fly.
I'm gonna land beside a lion,
and run my fingers through his mane.
Or I might find out what it's like
To ride a drop of rain
(Chorus:)
Yeah when I get where I'm going,
there'll be only happy tears.
I will shed the sins and struggles,
I have carried all these years.
And I'll leave my heart wide open,
I will love and have no fear.
Yeah when I get where I'm going,
Don't cry for me down here.
I'm gonna walk with my grandaddy,
and he'll match me step for step,
and I'll tell him how I missed him,
every minute since he left.
Then I'll hug his neck.
(Chorus)
So much pain and so much darkness,
in this world we stumble through.
All these questions, I can't answer,
so much work to do.
But when I get where I'm going,
and I see my Maker's face.
I'll stand forever in the light,
of His amazing grace.
Yeah when I get where I'm going,
Yeah when I get where I'm going,
there'll be only happy tears.
Hallelujah!
I will love and have no fear.
When I get where I'm going.
Yeah when I get where I'm going.
My Daddy recently passed away and the one song that really helped me through and was really fitting for him was
Lead Me Home by Jamey Johnson. It is on his CD " The Dollar"
Please check it out, I think you will agree. Great Song.
Please accept my sympathies to you and your family..
Here are the lyrics....
I have seen my last tomorrow * I am holding my last breath * Goodbye sweet world of sorrow * My new life begins with death**
Chorus..I am standing on the mountain * I can hear the angel's song * I am reaching over Jordan * Take my hand, Lord, lead me home**
All my burdens are behind me * I have prayed my final prayer * Don't you cry over my body * 'Cause that ain't me lying there**
Repeat Chorus Twice**
Take my hand, Lord, lead me home**
this isnt country... but im sure it'll help you.
Bright eyes - Easy, lucky, free. you really should listen
sorry for your loss.
Holly Dunn- Daddy's Hands
I remember Daddy's hands
Folded silently in prayer
And reaching out to hold me
When I had a nightmare
You could read quite a story
In the callouses and lines
Years of work and worry
Had left their mark behind
I remember Daddy's hands
How they held my Mama tight
And patted my back
For something done right
There are things I've forgotten
That I loved about the man
But I'll always remember
The love in Daddy's hands
Daddy's hands
Were soft and kind when I was cryin'
Daddy's hands
Were hard as steel when I'd done wrong
Daddy's hands
Weren't always gentle but I'd come to understand
There was always love in Daddy's hands
I remember Daddy's hands
Working til they bled
Sacrificed unselfishly
Just to keep us all fed
If I could do things over
I'd live my life again
And never take for granted
The love in Daddy's hands
Daddy's hands
Were soft and kind when I was cryin'
Daddy's hands
Were hard as steel when I'd done wrong
Daddy's hands
Weren't always gentle but I'd come to understand
There was always love in Daddy's hands
Daddy's hands
Were soft and kind when I was cryin'
Daddy's hands
Were hard as steel when I'd done wrong
Daddy's hands
Weren't always gentle but I'd come to understand
There was always love ............ in Daddy's hands
help pour out the rain by Buddy Jewell is guaranteed the best choice. and sorry bout your grandaddy...
The moment was custom-made to order:
I was ridin' with my daughter on our way back from Monroe.
An' like children do, she started playin' twenty questions,
But I never could've guessed one would touch me to my soul.
She said: "Daddy, when we get to Heaven, can I taste the Milky Way?
"Are we goin' there to visit, or are we goin' there to stay?
"Am I gonna see my Grandpa? Can I have a pair of wings?
"An' do you think that God could use another Angel,
"To help pour out the rain?"
Well, I won't lie: I pulled that car right over,
An' I sat there on the shoulder tryin' to dry my misty eyes.
An' I whispered: "Lord, I wanna thank you for my children.
"'Cause your innocence that fills them often takes me by surprise."
Like: "Daddy, when we get to Heaven, can I taste the Milky Way?
"Are we goin' there to visit, or are we goin' there to stay?
"Am I gonna see my Grandpa? Can I have a pair of wings?
"An' do you think that God could use another Angel,
"To help pour out the rain?"
Well, I thought about it later on,
An' a smile came to my face.
An' when I tucked her in to bed,
I got down on my knees an' prayed.
Lord, when I get to Heaven, can I taste the Milky Way?
"I don't wanna come to visit 'cause I'm comin' home to stay?
"An' I can't wait to see my family and meet Jesus face to face.
"An' do you think, Lord, you could use just one more Angel,
"To help pour out the rain?"
Mmmm, can I help pour out the rain?
Sorry for your loss!!
The perfect song would be "God Only Cries"
by Diamond Rio!! It is a beautiful song.
'Hope this helps!!
Artist: Diamond Rio
Song: God only cries
On an icy road one night
A young man loses his life
They marked the shoulder with a cross
And his family gathers round
On a piece of Hallowed ground
Their hearts are heavy with their loss
As the tears fall from their eyes
There's one who'll always sympathize
God only cries for the living
Cause it's the living that are left to carry on
And all the angels up in Heaven
They're not grieving because they're gone
There's a smile on their faces
Cause they're in a better place than
They've ever known
God only cries for the living
Cause it's the living that are so far from home
It still makes me sad
When I think of my Granddad
I miss him each and every day
But I know the time will come
When my own grandson
Wonders why I went away
Maybe we're not meant to understand
Til we meet up in the Promised Land
God only cries for the living
Cause it's the living that are left to carry on
And all the angels up in Heaven
They're not grieving because they're gone
There's a smile on their faces
'Cause they're in a better place than
They've ever known
God only cries for the living
Cause it's the living that are so far from home
Yeah, we're so far from home
