LIVE THREAD--Reagan State Funeral Ceremony: Lying in State at the Rotunda (6/11/04)
Please .. really .. this is a day to honor and respect President Reagan
That Irishman can sing.
"Amazing Grace" .....I love it.
The Gospel went out today - clearly, powerfully, and resoundingly. It will not return void. This is a transforming day for America. Even in death, this great man has given to us immeasurably. Thank you, Lord, for Ronald Wilson Reagan, for his example and his inspiration. Amen.
you mean...now he sees the saviour face to face...see earlier posts.
Tynan is so amazing. *sob*
I hate how Nancy has cut him out of the picture. Really low even for her in her time of grief. The Funeral service he was sent to the back row, not even allowed to be with Ron Jr and Patti. Very sad!He's in the front row, with them, right now.

Clinton: An illustration of the very reason that Ronald Reagan and the Bushes are so loved. The Reagans and Bushes are the polar opposites of the Clintons. It doesn't hurt to mention that truth on this thread about a great man's passing.
I was very please they sang the original words also. Pres. Reagan was plain spoken and so is Pres. Bush. It was very appropriate. I almost cheered through my tears.
Agreed... We sang the original "died" version at my (PUBLIC!!!) high school graduation, and it is a beautiful song, especially when done in male/female harmony... we were a bunch of 18 year old kids and it came out impressively well, but this version was beautiful and put ours to shame.
It brought tears to my eyes as I watched the footage and listened.
I assume you're talking about W's remarks. And, yes, you're right. God is with him. May God continue to cover him, and guide him. I think the political challenges thrown at Pres. Bush have in many ways been more difficult than those faced by Pres. Reagan. And Pres. Bush doesn't have the natural gifts to deal with them as Reagan did. But Bush has been unwavering in his graciousness, strength and integrity. That is the Lord's blessing upon him.
What an awesome rendition of "Amazing Grace!"
No... she's very frail.
They can't find him. I believe he fell off
the pew and is now out of sight.
IS CLINTON SLEEPING??????????
I saw that!
How can anyone sit through this service and not feel the presence of our Lord?
LORDS PRAYER
Thatcher was a participant and was recounting her memories. No greater tribute.
I think I'll email my orchestra director and ask if he knows of where I can get a copy. It's the same arrangement we played for our July 4th services, so he should know... when I find it I'll share.
"GWB is starting to behave like a President."
Go play on a busy street somewhere, will you?
