Tears in Heaven offers a musical way to remember someone loved. A tender reflection on loss, longing and the hope of reunion. As a funeral selection, it can provide space for personal memories and feelings that are difficult to express in a spoken tribute.
This selection can be considered for a quiet remembrance of a child, after a family reading or during a photo tribute. If sung live, choose a performer and accompaniment that suit the selected version; if played as a recording, agree the timing and length with the funeral team.
When choosing Tears in Heaven for a service, consider the child’s place in the family and the love that continues after loss. Listen to the complete recording with the family and check its words, arrangement and emotional tone before deciding where it belongs in the ceremony.
