Wynonna Judd - Psalm 151 (Touched By An Angel)


This is such a touching moment in an episode of Touched By An Angel called "Psalm 151." It is about a single mother who's son is dying of cancer. He knows that he is dying and there isn't much he can do about it. He tries to accomplish a list of things he wants to finish before he dies. The last thing he needs to accomplish on his list is helping his mother to finish writing a song, as she is a songwriter and stopped writing ages ago. She doesn't want to finish writing her song because it feels like she would be admitting defeat and giving up her son. It pains her so much and she doesn't want it to happen, but she has to be able to accept that her son is probably going to die and she needs to let him go and give Him up to God in peace. So, she finishes the song and as she is performing it for her son in front of a crowd of friends and supporters he passes away in total peace. It is so sad and touching and uplifting and inspirational all at once.
