Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood sing at Jimmy Carter's funeral | FOX 5 News

[@andyontheinternet5777]

This song choice is like something from the Babylon Bee

[@darrylknick4945]

"Imagine there's no Heaven". As a man of God, I'm not sure how former President Carter would feel about this song for his funeral.

[@djr63]

He picked it.

Well man of God , I'm sure Trump knows very well !

In Church for the funeral of a devout Christian and former President and the first two lines of the song are "Imagine there's no heaven. Imagine there's no country". Not saying its a bad song, just possibly a bad pick for this event.

[@arjaysmithjr]

Not a bad song if you are an atheist, globalist, secular humanist, communist. Not bad AT ALL.

[@HonkeyMagoo77]

@arjaysmithjr I'm a fan of the Beatles. That said, again, I don't think it was the right song. But then again, President Carter and the former first lady picked this song out a long while ago. Should he not have the right to choose his song for his own funeral?

[@djbobbyddimas3344]

Perfect and Powerful song choice. Rest In Peace President Carter

[@rob.lundberg0513]

What a pathetic song for a funeral

[@irmasearcy6446]

Yes that's sorry 😞

[@wtsdwr6751]

The song imagine is an atheist song so that is very inappropriate for President Jimmy Carter's funeral because he was a lifelong Christian.

[@li33-bee]

He had it sung at First Lady Rosalyn Carter's funeral as well.

[@laurapitmon1253]

Ok Debbie Downer.

[@rrnabors1]

Lifelong Christian? . . . would a lifelong Christian enthusiastically support the wonton murder of 10's of millions of human beings in the womb? Much less be the leader of the baby killer cult? . . . I think not . . . I suspect Jimmy heard these words . . . "Depart from Me . . . I never knew you".

It all depends how you interpret the song ..get over it

[@laurapitmon1253]

Hey Matt, don't over think it, buddy.

[@bonniematthews7611]

This was President Carter's FAVORITE song. Seeing the deeper meaning and implications of the song requires opening one's heart and mind to universal spirit. When you embody goodness, when God's compassion is seated in your heart, there is no need for the human construct of religion. The lyrics serve as a model of perfection of the spirit, the overcoming of human foibles and vices. They poetically illustrate our collective yearning for peace and brotherly love, aspirations for wholeness, the manifestation of virtue and compassion.

[@jacquesprovencher7882]

Very well said

[@andyontheinternet5777]

Such mindless drivel. “Open your heart and mind to the universal spirit…” What does that even mean.

[@rrnabors1]

It was his favorite song . . . should tell you all you need to know about his "Christianity" . . . It denies many of the tenants of the Christian faith which he espoused to believe in . . .

Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood should have performed the song "I CAN ONLY IMAGINE" by Mercy Me, Instead of the song "IMAGINE" by Jonn Lennon!.. Duh! 👇🏼

[@cpj0303]

So they should have played what you want instead of President Carter's favorite song?

[@Mr.NoName1972]

I was thinking the same thing. Maybe "I Can Only Imagine" was the song Jimmy Carter wanted played at his funeral.

[@rrnabors1]

Friends In Low Places would have been more appropriate to acknowledge his role in the tens of millions of babies he had a hand in, in their destruction as leader of the Baby Killer Cult.

[@li33-bee]

The lyrics are not negative as you who only listened to (or picked) specific verses and think you know/understand the song. Read them and your mind/heart may be enlightened to find the song is about humans finally getting past being bigoted, petty, finding reasons to be separated and go to war, or [most commonly) power-hungry. Like religious legalism, ethnicity, age, looks, etc. "Imagine there's no heaven It's easy if you try No hell below us Above us, only sky Imagine all the people *Livin' for today* Ah Imagine there's no countries It isn't hard to do *Nothing to kill or die for* And no religion, too Imagine all the *people Livin' life in peace* You You may say *I'm a dreamer* But I'm not the only one I hope someday you'll join us And the world will be as one Imagine *no possessions* I wonder if you can No need for *greed or hunger* A brotherhood of man Imagine all the *people Sharing all the world* You You may say I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one I hope someday you'll join us And *the world will live as one*."

Dear Lamebrain, That atheistic song, written by an atheist who is burning in hell right now, is an abominable song to sing at the funeral of ANY CHRISTIAN. It is atheistic, communistic, and globalistic. I hope NO ONE JOINS John Lennon in hell, but the left-wing vermin who are given over by God to REPROBATE MINDS, bound for hell themselves, will defend this OUTRAGEOUS ACT.

Excellent song pick. Garth and Trisha did a good job.

[@li33-bee]

For you folks questioning the music, perhaps he (as people have been known to prepare for their own funerals way in advance...) selected the song With his First Lady, side by side, before their age caught up to them. Considering that they had loving, long lives from which to listen to many musical selections from which to choose. It isn't such a stretch. ❤ 🙏 Now, you folks with Garth Brooks barbs, it is inappropriate to cast stones in a solemn, respectful, Christian commentary of our late Fmr President Carter.

[@TruePatriot59]

Garth Brooks couldn't have sang a worse song than the one he sang!! I can't believe that the church allowed him to sing it!! Very disappointing!!
