A call for songs for a bereavment camp



Hi, It's my first post to this list.

        Anyone have any ideas of good songs to sing at a weekend long 
bereavement
retreat in the mountains. We have a healing service and tree planting
ceremony that lends to plenty of time for singing. (We sing at campfires
and meals too.)

        Last year I used Debbie Friedman's Angel song as a thematic piece that 
we
sang many times over the coarse of the weekend. Any suggestions for a new
song, chant, etc. to use for the same purpose.
        Other songs we sang last year (that I can remember off the top of my 
head)
were
                Eli, Eli ;  Peace I ask of thee o river; Kol hanishama (round); 
                In my life (Beatles); Turn turn turn; Sh'ma Koleinu (DF); 
                Mi Shebeirach; Im ain ani li mi li; Blackbird (Beatles)

        Finally, anyone know a campy melodie for the psalm 23?

I look forward to meeting some of you at Hava Nashira!
