Upbeat and uplifting songs chosen by our past clients, to help you celebrate a life.
Songs for children's funerals
Songs, hymns and lullabies
Saying goodbye to a child is something no one hopes ever to have to do. But for those who do have to go through this, we have some ideas (including songs chosen for children’s funerals we have performed for in the past), that we hope will help grieving parents and families find comfort.
Lullabies
A lullaby can be a soothing and gentle way to say goodbye. There are some beautiful lullabies in classic children’s films and pop music, as well as the traditional lullabies we learn as children.
Suo Gan (Welsh lullaby)
Brahms’ Lullaby (Cradle Song)
Hush, Little Baby (Traditional US)
La La Lu from Disney’s Lady and the Tramp
Stay Awake from Mary Poppins
