My good friend was killed a couple days ago in a motorcycle accident. We are trying to find the artist and/or title of the song containing the lyrics "DON'T CRY FOR ME ON EARTH" to play at his funeral. I believe it is a country/western style song and that is all the info we have. This song is really important to the deceased's daughter. Please help if you can. Thanks.

Is it...
When I Get Where I'm Going
Brad Paisley (feat. Dolly Parton)

When I get where I'm going
On the far side of the sky
The first thing that I'm going to do
Is spread my wings and fly

I'm going to land beside a lion
And run my fingers through his mane
Or I might find out what it's like
To ride a drop of rain

[Chorus]
Yeah when I get where I'm going
There'll be only happy tears
I will shed the sins and struggles
I have carried all these years
And I'll leave my heart wide open
I will love and have no fear
Yeah when I get where I'm going
Don't cry for me down here

I'm going to walk with my grand daddy
And he'll match me step for step
And I'll tell him how I missed him
Every minute since he left
Then I'll hug his neck

[Repeat chorus]

So much pain and so much darkness
In this world we stumble through
All these questions I can't answer
So much work to do

But when I get where I'm going
And I see my maker's face
I'll stand forever in the light
Of his amazing grace
Yeah when I get where I'm going
There'll be only happy tears
Hallelujah
I will love and have no fear
When I get where I'm going
Yeah when I get where I'm going





Or could it be...
"If Heaven" by Andy Griggs

If heaven was an hour, it would be twilight
When the fireflies start dancing on the lawn
And suppers on the stove and mammas laughing
And everybody's working day is done

If heaven was a town it would be my town
Oh…on a summer day in 1985
And everything I wanted is out there waiting
And everyone I loved is still alive

Chorus:
Don't cry a tear for me now baby
There comes a time we all must say goodbye
And if that's what heavens made of
You know I, I ain't afraid to die

If heaven was a pie it would be cherry
So, Cool and sweet and heavy on the tongue
And just one bite would satisfy your hunger
And there'd always be enough for everyone

If heaven was a train it sure would be a fast one
That could take this weary traveler round the bend
If heaven was a tear it'd be my last one
And you'd be in my arms again

Chorus:
Don't cry a tear for me now baby
There comes a time we must all say goodbye
And if that's what heavens made of
You know I, I ain't afraid to die

Yea, if that's what heavens made of
You know I, I ain't afraid to die…..

Is this the one u looking for? Its by Black hawk
I too was searching for "don't cry for me" but the
Name of the lyrics is 'Ships Of Heaven"

Don't cry for me when I'm gone
Keep the faith and be strong
'Cause through it all I've been blessed
I faced my fears
And I've passed the test
So when you look up in the sky
On a sunny day
Imagine me drifting away
I'll be sailing on the ships of heaven
When the tide rolls out for the
Last time
You'll find me sailing on the ships of heaven
Waiting for the day
I come sailing back to you
Remember all the times we had
Some were great and some were sad
But you know that in the end
Our love was stronger then when we began
No unforgiven sins and no regrets
Just the times of our lives that we'll
Never Forget
I'll be sailing on the ships of heaven
When the tide rolls out for the
Last time
You'll find me sailing on the ships of heaven
Waiting for the day
I come sailing back to you
I'll be sailing on the ships of heaven
When the tide rolls out for the
Last time
You'll find me sailing on the ships of heaven
Waiting for the day
I come sailing back to you
When the tide rolls out for the
Last time
You'll find me sailing on the ships of heaven
Waiting for the day
I come sailing back to you
On the ships of heaven
I come sailing back to you...

This one is sung by Jacob Jones,

Don't cry for me,
Don't cry for me,
When my time comes just let me be,
When I'm gone,
Don't cry for me.

All my troubles are gone,
All my troubles are gone,
No more worries boys, all my troubles are gone,
It's time for moving on,
All my troubles are gone.

So don't cry for me,
Don't cry for me,
When my time comes let me be,
When I'm gone,
No, don't cry for me.

Yeah, I got my ticket in my hands
It seem babe, my ship is finally coming.

So don't cry for me,
Don't cry for me,
When my time comes, just let me be,
When I'm gone,
Don't cry for me.
