Lullaby for Cora (SOTW #20)
February 8, 2009 | Song of the Week
Baby Cora (3/5/08 - 2/8/09)
We have some good friends whose 10 month old daughter Cora was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer two weeks ago. Its been a roller coaster of emotions for the family. This morning we awoke to a voice mail that little Cora passed away late last night. We had another song ready for this week, but I really felt the urge to write a song for Cora this morning. I hope you enjoy it Cora.

“Lullaby for Cora”
lyrics by Tim Seley
This is a lullaby for Cora
Go to sleep child…
This is a lullaby for Cora
Go to sleep child…
The time for hurting is over
The time for hurting is gone
The time for hurting is over
The time for hurting is gone
Goodbye, goodbye
Sleep child, sleep child
We’ll see you on the other side
We’ll see you on the other side
We’ll see you on the other side
This is a lullaby for Cora
Go to sleep child…
- this song is for Cora… rest in peace sweetie

Beautiful song for a beautiful, precious girl.
Weeping for her and for the pain of living in such a messed up world where things like this happen. Thanks for the hope in this song, also, Tim (“we’ll see you on the other side”). It lifts…even in the midst of the heartache.
Honestly, this song put me in tears, my grandma has stage 4 cancer. I cannot imagine what Cora’s parents are going through. I will be praying for the family.
Amazing, beautiful. and thoughtful song!
Absolutely beautiful! Words cannot even explain how amazing this is. Everytime I listen to this tears stream down my face, yet I still want to hear it more and more!! What a great thing to do! Praying for them still.
