15 Comforting Christian Songs for a Death or Tragedy

In my role as a musician and as a Pastor's wife I have had opportunity to minister to many families that have been hit with tragedy. Sometimes it is the news of a terminal illness afflicting one that they love, other times it is the loss of a family member through divorce and even death. Regardless of the life circumstance, it is good to be able to reflect upon some great Christian songs for comfort after that tragedy. Here are just 15 Christian songs that I hope will comfort you today. I have included a mix of hymns and contemporary songs. They are listed in no particular order as they are all very comforting.
