The Old Churchyard

[@rebeccaostermann5273]

Very Beautiful. It makes me think of my triplets who died 3 years ago...

[@ForestMyths]

What soulful and beautiful voices. It makes one believe that heaven is a lot closer than we know.

[@shawnpatrickmcburney2952]

Oh my Lord....is anybody else aware that these two women are angels????? That has to be one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard, sung by the two most beautiful women I've ever seen....I really mean that...I hope one day to hear them live!! Thank you for your beautiful music!!!

[@Travis-hp4jr]

Such a great performance! The lyrics truly mean so much for Christians. I rest in that HOPE.

[@biot7175]

i don't know why but the backup singer is so adorable ❤ I love her facial expressions

[@alexhowe9783]

Almost certain that's Nicola Joyce who sometimes performs with Pauline in a quartet called The Half Room

[@grahamgault7552]

Is that voice not just the loveliest thing you've ever heard?!

[@maryford9651]

Yep, certainly right up there with a select few. Looking forward very much to hearing this lovely voice in person in a few months when she visits NZ.

[@Caroline-m8f]

[@souledout3791]

Singing Angel! Love the meaning of this song!!!!! Thank You for sharing.

[@JaneWillowMusic]

It's kind of unreal for someone to have a voice like this. Incredible.

[@ForbanArthur]

I discovered this song few days before my little cousine has Been killed by a cold blood murderer, today this Song sounds like her. Thank you.

[@Texascarnivore]

Truly a masterpiece. I've loved this song by other artists, but this is the best I've heard!

[@rebeccawspanogle4275]

So simple and absolutely beautiful!!

[@tomyoung3529]

This is the voice of end of James Joyce's “The Dead”.

[@joannegriffin3290]

Enchanting, stunning, sad but hopeful at the same time.

[@suzannebarokas8209]

Hello Karen. Jesus but I cried so hard everyday after losing my sister, our beautiful Marian. The lady singing at the funeral mass had the decency and gift to learn this song and play it to perfection on the day we buried her amazing soul.

Great singer this woman

[@nialldo1]

Beautiful Pauline!

[@jamesparker760]

I know now why I have enjoyed your voice from the 1st note. It's because your vocal style reminds me a lot like the classy Orla Fallon. xx

[@mariecorpelet4240]

Come, come with me out to the old churchyard I so well know that paths 'neath the soft green sward Friends slumber in there that we wants to regard We will trace out their names in the old churchyard Mourn not for them, their trials are o'er And why weep for those who will weep no more? For sweet is their sleep, though cold and hard Their pillows may be in the old churchyard And I know that it's vain when our friends depart To breathe kind words to a broken heart And I know that the joy of life it is marred When we follow lost friends to the old churchyard But were I at rest 'neath yonder tree Oh, why would you weep, my friends, for me? I'm so weary, so wayworn, why would you retard The peace I seek in the old churchyard? Why weep for me, for I'm anxious to go To that haven of rest where no tears ever flow? And I fear not to enter that dark lonely tomb Where our Savior has lain and had conquered the gloom And I rest in the hope that one bright day Sunshine will burst through these prisons of clay And old Gabriel's trumpet and the voice of the Lord Will wake up the dead in the old churchyard

So beautiful thank you, Eric Scanlon, only just found Pauline xx

[@keithshedron4351]

Stunning performance. The beautiful voices are perfect for this song. Does anyone know the name of the other vocalist? History of the song? My internet searches have not turned up much.

[@neilsalowitz6245]

Her voice is proof of the existence of God...

[@ИгорьСтарцев-н4е]

Very nice. Очень красиво, Полина!

[@carmy40]

wow!

[@alexhenry9256]

A lovely rendition. Beautiful and bittersweet. If you like this song, Jefferson Hamer and Eamon O'Leary also do a nice one. I have plenty of room for both versions in my playlists.

[@annalago3407]

My RE teacher showed me this song

[@druchumley4571]

This is the definitive version.

[@fishscale2640]

Ralph Stanley would definitely approve.

[@kmal1278]

Wow

[@ronnaleecaton1752]

@Pauline Scanlon , oops! I forgot to address by your name when I wrote my last comment--want lyrics 😩🥰🥰🥰

[@danielknutson3200]

I can tell that there's some quality musicianship present here, just a bit overproduced for my taste, especially considering that this is a folk song. Don't hide behind the vocal processing so much. You've got a great voice let it shine. Beautiful song.

[@oliverroy19]

Daniel Knutson I can recommend listening to another version of this song by Pauline on www.independent.ie windmill lane sessions. Just her beautiful voice, piano and guitar

[@mauricesheehy2460]
