*Adoption Songs* (PIOG)

I'm looking for songs about adoption, I am making a DVD slide show to play at our adoption party and share with family, but I'm trying to find some really good adoption songs to set it to. I would like them to be from an adoptive parent or a child perspective, if possible. Do you have a favorite or know any good one? Thank

My favorite is from the Disney movie Tarzan. http://http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JIVaUcE4kAM

I feel the words are so appropriate. Good luck on your DVD.

This isn't specifically 'adoption'....but as I can recall, only one phrase might be more about biological than 'adoption, KWIM?

"Isn't she lovely!"......Stevie Wonder

This song was playing a lot when we adopted our first baby. Upbeat and joyful and we applied it a lot to our own adoption.

Sincerely,

Linny

Becky Wright

I went looking for the previously mentioned Becky Wright song and found she has several others relating to adoption. Don't have time rigth now, but might be worth checking out!

I've used "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" and "From God's Arms, To My Arms, To Yours". Both songs are absolutely beautiful.
