At least, if we're any damn good at all.
Sometimes words fail us, and all we can do is rely on art to give voice to grief. This is about the best example of that I can think of.
Go Rest High On That Mountain (Songwriter: Vince Gill)
I know your lifeRest in Peace, Michael. Go to Heaven a shouting' love for the Father and the Son.
On earth was troubled
And only you could know the pain
You weren't afraid to face the devil
You were no stranger to the rain
Go rest high on that mountain
‘Cause, Son, your work on earth is done
Go to Heaven a shoutin'
Love for the Father and the Son
Oh, how we cried the day you left us
And gathered round your grave to grieve
Wish I could see the angels’ faces
When they hear your sweet voice sing
Go rest high on that mountain
‘Cause, Son, your work on earth is done
Go to Heaven a shoutin'
Love for the Father and the Son
Go rest high on that mountain
‘Cause, Son, your work on earth is done
Go to Heaven a shoutin'
Love for the Father and the Son
Go to Heaven a shoutin'
Love for the Father and the Son

Amen.
our hearts continue to grieve with you. may your family draw even closer to each other and comfort one another through these days ahead.
Yes, this song speaks to our grief. My heart aches for you and your family. And I truly believe that God has a special place for our troubled children who choose to end their lives and end their pain. I believe that my son is finally at peace in God's love and I pray that yours is also. And we will see them again when our time on this earth is through. My prayers for you and your family for God to heal your hearts.
Amen.
