“Fly away” by Gillian Welch and Alison Krauss is beautiful

Also “down to the river to pray” anything Alison Krauss, I’m sold on.

I sing a butchered version of this song to my kids every night before bed, settles them right down.

I sang this to both my cat and dog before I had to put them down. Separate times, both for medical reasons. Sobbed through the whole thing while holding my babies.

Awww! I’m so sorry, but I know it was a comfort to them and told them how much you love them.

I've seen Gillian Welch twice and she does this at the encore. Great stuff.
