My dog Jet was my best friend for 12 years. He was a stray estimated at 3 years old when he came into my life. 2 years ago he suffered a prolapse and I found out he had cancer. I was told he'd last 6 - 8 months, but I got 2 more years with him. He was my pal, my protector, my whole world. He'd seen me through heartbreak, injury, illness, and the phases of growing up and never once turned his back on me. This past Tuesday was his last day with me. The gate to the rainbow bridge was opened for him by the Vet. I miss him and love him so much, and I can't thank him enough for all the memories.
I one hundred percent know what you are saying and feeling. My Ruthie was 16 when she passed. She was my everything. Best fur baby ever . I think of her everyday... I miss her so much. A love like no other. Deeply sorry for your loss♡
Thank you Jimmy Scott for wonderful words for comforting. My husband of 63 yrs passed away on 6/27/23. Still miss him so much. Thank you for this song. ❤️🥲
I lost my grandpa this morning. I cried like I never cried before. Listening to this made me realize he is in a better place, no more hurting for him💚he went through wars, his mom got killed in front of him by soldiers when he was 10. He escaped his country, he got separated from his little brother. Then he reaches out to him and brought him to Switzerland with him to start a new life. He met my grandma and they got married. They’ve been together for 64 years. Now they are together again💚
My brother was a strong, perfectly healthy doctorate student. He was told that he had liver cancer. He started treatment for two months.He passed away at the age of 49. It has been five months since his death. My brother was a good, good man. May his soul rest in peace in the right hand of the Father.The memory of his works and his family love will live with us forever.
This song reminds me of my wife's funeral about a year ago. A white butterfly was with her at the church. I miss my wife so much, but I know she is with the Lord now where there'll be no more nights, no more pain, no more tears, never crying again.
Mom, I know more than anyone how you longed to fly and soar with no more troubles. I get my peace knowing you are free from the worldly troubles you faced, and knowing you're finally at peace. Though a piece of my soul is missing, these butterflies surrounding me remind us all that you are smiling. We were blessed to have you in our lives. I'll forever love you, Mom.
My sister told me that my son had guided her to this song and wanted her to share it with me. My sister's favorite thing in the world is butterflies.I see at least one everyday. I miss you Tommy James. Peace to all.
I'm very sorry about your husband, trust me I completely understand how you feel, I felt the same way when my wife past away June 4th 2018 grief is hard to deal with but we learn to live with it, where are you from.?
" Those we love don't go away, They walk beside us every day, Unseen, unheard, but always near, Still loved, still missed and very dear." In memories we find comfort; In time we find peace.
I just lost my golden retriever. He was my love, my best friend. Maybe to some you feel its silly...he was a dog. But to a heart, loss is loss. Love is love no matter what form it's given. Blessings to all of you who are hurting.
Pinup_Charmer I couldn’t help but leave a comment to you. I’m on my 3 rd Golden retriever. I know the hurt when loosing such a close friend they become. My present one, Clover, just turned 8 yrs old yesterday. We are in our 6 week of quarantine and she loves having my husband and my dad ( 94) home all the time. Lots of belly rubs and petting. I wished you lived close because she could always use more loving especially from a golden lover. I hope someday you get another golden, they have so much love to give. Clover is sleeping right next to me in our bed. 🥰 My mother is rolling over in her grave hearing this. I’m 65 and it the best feeling in the world. Susan from Indiana 😘
I lost the love of my life on April 17th, 2020. We had been together since meeting when we were only 16. We married on April 1st, 1967, one month after I turned 18 and I do not think I will ever get over loosing her. She was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer on February 19th and was called to heaven just two months later.
@AMBER POND my uncle is dying of cancer he married to anut and he bave man i loves him i dont want him dies i see in port pirie i live at swan reach it 2 hours drives i might be my last time what say to him ?.
I dedicate this song to my husband who passed away last Dec, 2017. I have a difficult time dealing with it. Please pray for me to move on.Eternal rest grant to him, O Lord; and let light perpetual shine upon him. May his soul, and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace, Amen.
I lost my mom suddenly a short time ago & she is greatly missed . I see I lost mot only my mom that day but truly the best friend a person could ever ask for. I need her so much still now I'm suffering from a work injury that required me to get my chest cut open & my mom was my strength & now I have none . Ive cried everyday since she's gone . I asked god why but I guess that answer if for another time. Fly mom fly like the beautiful butterfly that u are & always will be. U will never be forgotten & I'm so sad everday my life seems to have no meaning since god took u away. I only know the sadness more tears everyday .
Your loved one though gone from you is always much closer to you. Try a small prayer and even through your tears you will feel the closeness and warmth of their love for you. Take courage, be strong. God is with you.
This is such a beautiful song... I lost my husband last January and the theme of his memory board my daughter painted was the Monarch Butterfly. While one flew away, 3 caterpillars looked on from a branch where an empty chrysalis hung. It was to show myself and my 2 children looking on while he flew away to heaven. It was quite beautiful... this song puts me in a mind of that day. I wrote a poem about it. Thanks for writing and sharing such a beautiful song with us all.
I'm very sorry about your husband, trust me I completely understand how you feel, I felt the same way when my wife past away June 4th 2018 grief is hard to deal with but we learn to live with it, where are you from.?
My best friend passed away eight years ago.i miss her very much.We were like sisters. We knew one another very well. Now hard for me to find a good friend that I can trust. I love you Heidi. I will always remember her
At my daddy's burial, the folks working at the graveyard took up the shovel. First ,one male cousin came through the crowd, took up that shovel, said something like "Nobody's covering up Uncle Doug but people who love him." Cousins lined up for their turn to lay my daddy to rest, tears streaming, their beloved and SO respected Uncle Doug, to rest. I've never been more proud of my cousins. I could actually see my daddy's soul smile.
My wife’s beloved grandmother and the matriarch of her family has passed away this week . The family asked me to sing a song for her and I came here for inspiration. This is an truly heartfelt and amazing song and I am so sorry for the loss you must have felt to compose this .
Wow so touching,, To my late husband, It has been 18 years but it feels like yesterday when God called you home, I will love you for eternity,,, I love you so much.,, Until we meet again,,,
I'm very sorry about your husband, trust me I completely understand how you feel, I felt the same way when my wife past away June 4th 2018 grief is hard to deal with but we learn to live with it, where are you from?
Thanks so much Hun I definitely got your message never be forgotten love you forever Judy 🌹🦋 till we meet again miss you every day 💔🌹🦋 sweet wife 45 great years 🌹
My father passed away 4 weeks ago yesterday from liver and kidney failure. Everyday I see a butterfly and there have been numerous times there has been one around his grave. I stumbled upon this song and it must be a part of my healing process because it definitely hit home and although people think I am crazy I can honestly say I feel that every time I see a butterfly it is a message from my father assuring me that he is indeed free.
Thank you for writing this beautiful song.....Dad passed away just 10 days ago and this will be the centrepiece of his funeral in a few days time.....it also inspired me to write his eulogy. Thank you.
great song. I lost my older brother 2 years ago from cancer. He fought it all the way. He was a assistant pastor in Oregon and was only 56 years old. miss him every day, RIP
Love that song. The day I went to my husband's funeral, I saw a bald eagle( my husband's favorite) in a field. He was saying goodbye to me. That was a little over 2 yrs ago. My heart is broken,but I know I'll see him again.He will always be in my heart.Love you always.
As I scroll down this page I see so much loss and grieving. To each and everyone we are here together, through this beautiful song, to support and comfort one another. With Metta
I love this song I lost my son July 2018 he left to teenage boys too. Freak accident I ve been devastated heartbroken. My only child son and best friend as he became adult. I love you Josh I miss are late night talks and you teasing your ole mom.
This song is beautiful. 3 years ago in Aug my brother took his life. I have found a group to help me with his loss. Butterflies are beautiful signs that our loved ones are around and no longer hurting. Love and prayers to everyone here struggling through their grief over your loved ones.
So do I Ellen. I'm amazed always at how close the come to me, butterflies flying by almost touching me, birds walking into my home, walking close around me without fear. I have also lost many loved ones over many the years. An understanding now of the wonderful feeling when I 3xperience the closeness of the butterflies and birds.
I’ve been crying for the last hour, tomorrow is Mother’s Day, and this will be my first without my mom. I finally got to this song and it was so beautiful and gentle that it helped me stop crying. Just thinking about how light she must feel, without the burdens of this world. Enough for her to fly away on the wings of a butterfly. Thank you Jesus, God’s grace is such a blessing. It hurts without her, but heaven is such a gift.
The song on the "Wings of a Butterfly " is so true for me. I have never heard anything so beautiful and true. I truly hope my life will be just like that someday . I should not have listened to those song's in the morning, now I don't want to get out of bed. I just feel like laying here and crying all day.
I actually cried while listening here. Remembered my grandfather who passed away on 2/28/15. I remembered his love for me even though i llive far away from him. Even though i'm far from him i always loved him and keep on asking my mom where is he. Then he visited me while surviving his illness but he didn't survive. :( I miss you grandpa.
I just came to this song in passing as I was having one of those nights where you feel the pain so deep as though you almost have to remind your heart to beat and your chest to breathe. My Grandpa was my hero. He was everything that made life so great. I went for a walk just now, and twice a white butterfly crossed my path, & I felt reminded my Grandpa is with me 💕 I read your comment, and said a little prayer that I hope you get that feeling today too. Grandpa's and Grandma's really are the Bes✝️👑🐦🕊️🤍🦋🤍🙏
This song is so gentle and comforting. My only brother passed on May 28th in hospice. I didn't know it at that time that the butterfly is part of their transition symbol.
Yesterday it was a month since you passed papa. I know we were not real family but you meant the world to me. If only I could hear your voice and hug you
The simple and touching phrase is used by the poet, hits the heart of person who had lost his loving one like father or mother.Jimmy & the singer, I salute you
I lost my two oldest angels, Teddy and Tara two days after Christmas 2018. The pain is unbearable, but this song gets me through on my really bad days. God bless you all that have lost loved ones
@@maryk8460 no, not at all, was really touched by your comments dear, I know how you feel okay, I know how it feels losing a loved one as well, just decided to say hi
@@maryk8460 it's fine Mary, I believe Go definitely has a reason for everything, so we all have to cheer up and move on and also enjoy the best life has for us, it's really nice getting to hear from you Mary, I never expected to see your reply, lol
The first of November two thousand and seventeen💕😭 My family lost the most important part of our family she was a great granny, mum, wife, daughter, sister-in-law, cousin but most of all she was an angel sent from heaven😭💕🙏🏼 I can't think of any time she ever got mad at anyone of us, now she is gone we all feel pain about the thank yous we never got to say, the many more love yous we should've said and the hugs and kisses that we get to have😭💕🙏🏼 Fly high with your wings and see your mum and dad again, the gates of heaven have opened and closed but that doesn't mean your gone maybe in the world but never in soul💕
Such a beautifully worded song. Missing the boyfriend that passed away on Sept 26, 2019 after we were together for 4 yrs & known each other for 27 yrs. He's an angel up in heaven now. Missing him in my alone time w/out him. 😢💔🙏
I'm very sorry about your husband, trust me I completely understand how you feel, I felt the same way when my wife past away June 4th 2018 grief is hard to deal with but we learn to live with it, where are you from ?
My sister just died the other day, june 21, 2015 from a terrible car accident. she was only 36 years old and terribly missed and loved. we all were so close to her, our Jamie. At the funeral, I read these lerics of this song... and also got a tattoo of a butterfly and rose with SIS across the top. My sister loves butterflies, we both do actually... but now she can fly like a butterfly like this song says. THank you JIAMMY SCOTT for writing this song. It touched me beautifully in so many ways, plus my last name is SCOTT as well as the artist of this song. I miss you Jamie Boo... It was too soon to leave onto heaven.... I wasent ready, Iam sad mad and every emotion possible and not possible., But at least you can fly and be happy now and I know your troubles are no more! I LOVE YOU SIS..... xoxox
I lost my 2 daughters and husband tragically suddenly . Please Lord keep them in heavenly love and peace. I so deeply love and miss them terribly.💔😭💔😭💔😭

I lost some friends to suicide, lost a grandma, and felt as if my life is going to end. but I then smiled to the sky and said " they are with me in my heart forever " so, if anyone has lost someone, I'm here for you because I care and understand ^_^
I've lost everything and everyone.. I'm strong but my heart will never be whole and life will never be the same again for myself. It's okay I'll get by and still give my love and kindness to everyone.
My grandma just passed 4 days ago and I am missing her so much. And she loved butterflies so much that this really hit me. I hope she is finally with her mother and God.
I'm singing this to my whole school in memory of my best friend. My Dog who has been with me since a baby and took care of me. Love you T.J I love you. Be safe in heaven. I'll never forget you.
I lost my sister 2 weeks ago tomorrow. It's also the day we go to see her in chapel of rest. For these passed weeks all I do when I'm in bed is search RU-vid for music like this. I'm playing this song over and over again. She was a very special person to me and greatly missed. Why is life so cruel, as she suffered so. I have comfort in believing she is in a better place and in pain no more. We have to get through the day of her funereal which is in 3 days. Oh why oh why . God bless you Lorraine and fly fly fly on those wings of a butterfly. Love you xx
I just lost my dad 6 days ago on Mother's day of all days. I feel so alone cause he was my world he meant the world to me and more. RIP daddy you will always be in my heart and you will never be forgotten. Until we see eachothee again. i love u daddy
Have been listening to this song since 2014 when I lost my mother, I love it. Sometimes comforts me that she could still be here with me sometimes.. r.i.heaven mama!!
May you find peace and comfort and your mind filled with happy memories. I lost my mom a week ago. 2 days before my birthday. Today's been challenging.
I lost my husband in June. I miss him so much. This is a beautiful song. After the funeral while entering the place of the Wake, a beautiful butterfly flew in front of me. I knew it was a sign from him.
I'm very sorry about your husband, trust me I completely understand how you feel, I felt the same way when my wife past away June 4th 2018 grief is hard to deal with but we learn to live with it, where are you from.?
Hearing these song remembering my daughter and hoping she is a butterfly flying wherever she wants to go sleep on angel may u continues to sleep in peace
I'm very sorry about your husband, trust me I completely understand how you feel, I felt the same way when my wife past away June 4th 2018 grief is hard to deal with but we learn to live with it, where are you from.?
its weird and sad how you're so close with someone that they become a part of you, part of your life and one day you just find them gone and you're life feels so much different. And then everyday you just wish that when you wake up tomorrow, they'd be there somehow and everything will be back to how it was before. But you know it's impossible so you just try to relive the old times by reminiscing about the things you did with them, the small details, the laughs, the conversations, the feeling you felt during those moments.
I wanted to tell you this song was and is so beautiful. I just recently on Monday lost my mom due. She was found a block away from where she lived. She loved butterflies and this song touched me so much. Thank you for writing and singing such a beautiful song.
I lost my grandpa today. I am feeling horrible. He couldn't talk as he was very weak too so he during his last fifteen min he raised his hand and placed it on my head with help giving me blessings. He was going to dye but was still comforting me. Granddad I want to say I love you so much. I can't bear losing you. Please come back. Please
yes we lost our son back this past june. we sure miss him.i play that song by vince gill go rest high on that mountain. RIP Randy hudson. love you we will soon see you in heaven.
On August 8th 2019 my grandmother died from COPD. She always used to say, "When I am gone, I'm still with you, flying around. Like a beautiful butterfly" Her favorite animal was a butterfly and now every time I see a butterfly I end up crying. She was my everything, the only one I trusted. It didn't help that I was diagnosed with depression 2 months before she died. She was cremated so now everyday I go downstairs and hug her ern tight to me, and I sing this song. Still I feel she is right beside that ern, watching me, helping me...

Lost another friend from school today. Stage 4 cancer fighter for 7yrs. She fought valiantly. Never showing a sign of anger or regret. Always a ray of sunshine for those around her. Goodbye Tara. Too soon you left us. Watch over us from beyond.....we shall once again join you in the cosmos,when our time is here.
I lost my beautiful most kindest man I ever knew last October and the only thing that keeps me going is when I listen to heavens now my home rest in,peace Joe I love you
I lost my husband of 32years May 11,2016..then my Momma, n it hasn't stopped yet...I try n be strong for my son's n Grandchildren...The pain never stops..😢
I'm very sorry about your husband, trust me I completely understand how you feel, I felt the same way when my wife past away June 4th 2018 grief is hard to deal with but we learn to live with it, where are you from.?
OmG..One of the most beautiful songs my ears have ever heard. I remember seeing a butterfly at my fathers' graveside service and feeling some significance from it.
Beautiful song even though it makes me cry. I just lost my son February 28th 2017. I miss him so much I can't ever stop thinking of our times together while he was living with us. I miss you Shawn 💔💔 and always will!!
Eventhough it's 5 years ago she passed, I miss her everyday. I know she's watching so I gotta make the best of it but I still remember her and take moments like these. I hope you're fine gran❤️
God Bless you for sharing this song with all of us who are grieving for a loved one that we have lost. I, myself have lost my beautiful 20 year old daughter in a car accident 6 yrs ago, and it STILL feels like yesterday! The pain is too unbearable to even try to explain...I miss my little girl so much!
@@dianadonadio6875 that's fine, was really touched by that, had to say hi, I'm really glad to get to hear from you, it's a pleasure.... I sure understand how it feels losing a loved one though, it's not something one would wish to experience, but nevertheless God knows best, where are you chatting from?
May all those who have lost loved ones....be comforted in knowing that you will all be reunited again!!! Trust in God's promise...His only Son Jesus makes this possible for all of us. God said: "You were created for Heaven, not earth..."
I wish you guys amazingness today and everyday of the year. Don't let anyone get in the way of happiness, not even yourself. you are strong and capable and amazing and if you are feeling ashamed, alone or unworthy know you are better then you could ever imagine and know not to regret things and don't live your life ashamed but embrace the present and the world around you. YOU MATTER TO ME. Don't mind those who made you feel like you didn't. You are amazing and you're not weaker then any battle in life. You are cared for. You are worth it!!
I lost my big brother almost a month ago now.. I can't really stop myself from crying when I think about how much I cried at the funeral. I was always so mean to him but we were so close growing up. I'm only 13 and he was 15
My beautiful daughter was with me when she died. Her last words were 'I love you" and then my Sara fell into my arms.....gone. It's been over 3 1/2 years yet it feels like it was today. We let butterflies go at Sara's memorial. Two years after her death I was at a meeting and looked out the window and there was a white butterfly, just fluttering in one place then it was gone. I cry everyday and I can't wait for my butterfly. Sara was only 28. I had her with me for 28 years of beauty and tears too. I guess I should feel grateful but Sara wasn't alone when she died. My heart went with her. Each day I wonder how I'm going to get through the day. All I want is to go to her. Sara is and forever will be my heart, my baby, my soul. It's very hard to get through each day and I know it is to be that way until we meet again. The pain of losing a child is like no other pain. It doesn't lessen with time, the tears don't stop, and the love goes on forever.
I am so sorry for your loss did you have to go through something like that and by being your daughter I have one beautiful butterfly daughter and I cannot imagine losing her in my arms God bless
Bonnie Jacobs ......I'm So Sorry For The LOSS Of YOUR Daughter. I PRAY That GOD Will Wrap HIS Arm's Around YOU, And Will Give YOU "COMFORT," And "PEACE." I HAD A "STILLBORN," Baby. I CARRIED It To FULL-TERM. It Was A Lil' Girl, And SHE Only Weighed A Lil' Over "4 lbs." I Didn't Even Get To SEE Her. YOU Had Your Daughter For "28th" Yrs., And Then HAD To "GIVE HER UP". I KNOW That They Were REALLY "WONDERFUL" Year's, With ALOT Of Really "BEAUTIFUL" MEMORIE'S.Just KNOW, That She KNOW'S...That There IS A "Grieving" Time, But That SHE Also, Wouldn't Want To SEE YOU SUFFERING. YOU Can "CELEBRATE" HER "LIFE," By "CELEBRATING" YOUR'S !!! THAT Would Make HER "HAPPY." GOD BLESS YOU !!! THIs Time Of Year, Is SAD, For EVERYONE, And We Have ALL SUFFERED LOSSES, But GOD Will Give US The GRACE, To Tarry On............😍
I feel like this song was written for me! ❤️ I lost my best friend and soulmate 3 months ago! And what the lyrics say! Is exactly what I experienced. Three days after Pierre passed away, o had a butterfly come and sit on me! A beautiful experience! And I knew at that time he was safe in heaven! This song brought comfort to me, especially at this time. Love it 🥰

Johnnie Caldwell ......Hi !!! I Don't Know How Long Ago You Wrote This Comment. It's Now 12/20/17. It Was Under The Comment's, About A Song Called..."On The Wing's Of A Butterfly." You Were Talking About "Losing" Your Wife, To Pancreatic Cancer. I'm So Sorry. Just Wondering... Did You Ever Live In Roanoke, VA.? Was Your Dad's Name Harry, And Your Mom's Name Jessie ? Is Your Nick-Name Johnnie-Bug ? Anyway, Johnnie, Just KNOW That YOU, Are NEVER "Alone," Although At Time's, I'm Sure That You "Feel" All Alone. That HAS To BE, One Of The "Hardest Thing's To Go Through." I PRAY That GOD Will Wrap HIS Arm's Around YOU, And He Will "COMFORT" YOU, And "Give YOU "PEACE." Please Answer Me, So That I KNOW, If YOU Are Someone That I KNOW..........
I found this song when looking for something to play when we help our much loved cancer striken Buster cross the Rainbow Bridge. I have never heard such a beautiful and poignant song. It will e pefect to farewell our fur baby. Thank you Jimmy Scott
This is so beautiful . I dedicated it to my granddaughter Sheila who was our oldest grandchild . She turned 16 on Nov. 5th 2020 and died unexpectedly on Dec 29th 2020. She graduated high school at 15 and was starting collage when she turned 17. Planning to be a child therapist to help children deal with things in thier live like she did. Her heart was as open as a swinging door never closed. So smart so beautiful and so giving and kind. There will never be another like her.
My lovely husband passed last July. I always wonder if he is looking on me but deep in my heart I place him. Never a day passes by without me thinking him. I Love you baby miss you so much.
I'm very sorry about your husband, trust me I completely understand how you feel, I felt the same way when my wife past away June 4th 2018 grief is hard to deal with but we learn to live with it, where are you from.?
Another one of my favourites . Always listen to it. Reminds me when i was at the bus stop not long after my husband passed away when a white butterfly came and flew all around me .landed on my shoulder three times and flew round me again a couple of times before flying away thats why this song is so special to me.
