When my grandmother was reaching the end of her life, had lost most of her faculties, was blind, had lost the ability to speak, she could still hum the alto to Jesus Loves Me, when my mother would play it on the piano.
It is said that Music is one of the last senses to go, and reverting to the first song that you ever learned is not surprising. Wasn’t Whitney Huston’s father a minister? I hear her last days were a blur of mental confusion, so....

That simple little song has helped me through some bad times.
I don't know if it is because our moms and dads took us to church and that song was sung so frequently, but I feel God's love when I sing that song.
I have worked with very young children in daycares most of my life and I sang that song pretty much every day to let them know of God's love.
What a gift that song was for us.

The first song I learned was Jerry Lee Lewis "Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On", so whoever shows up at my deathbed is in for a surprise.

The first song that I learned was Them Bones, a hit from early 1947 for Waring's Pennsylvanians, who took a Delta Rhythm Boys spiritual and gave it the Spike Jones treatment.
