I spoke at a convention yesterday and the concert associated with the meeting featured Train. It was a small group, so the lead singer asked if he could sing a song acapella that was very important to him...he then sang "When I look to the sky" and brought me to tears. If you haven't heard it before, it's worth a listen. I think it will strike a chord with many of you.

CJ - I heard that song before. I just went and played it online. They also have a neat song, "Calling All Angels." I can just imagine how you felt when he sang it! It would have torn me apart. CHERI

I've had to stop running before when "Calling all angels" has come on my iPhone because it chokes me up every time. I'm not sure what his personal experience is, but he clearly has been where we all are.

He surely must have experienced something like us to record songs like that.
Thanks Matt. I watched the videos and listened to the songs. I've heard the "Calling All Angels." b4. Two great songs.

I'm not going anywhere near those songs! At least not until later today or this evening. I learned my lesson on that a couple of weeks ago. I've got to be able to stay focused this morning. :)

I JUST HIT THE LINK THAT MATT POSTED FOR THIS SONG. THE END OF THE VIDEO JUST SENT CHILLS STRAIGHT THROUGH ME!
THE SONG IS AMAZING, THANK YOU FOR BRINGING IT TO MY ATTENTION. BUT MUST ADMIT, I THINK I AM GOING TO SIT OUTSIDE AND HAVE A GOOD LONG CRY!!
I AM SO SORRY THAT ALL OF US HAVE THE UNFORTUNATE KNOWLEDGE THAT ALLOWS US TO UNDERSTAND THIS VIDEO.
WISHING EVERYONE STRENGTH TODAY!
