The memorial candle acknowledges a loved one who passed away. It is usually the first candle of the BM candle lighting ceremony. Here are some songs that can fit the lighting of this special candle.

I think "I miss you" by Miley Cyrus would be great for this!!

Sha-la-la-la-la, sha-la-la-la-la
You used to call me your angel
Said I was sent straight down from heaven
You'd hold me close in your arms

I loved the way you felt so strong
I never wanted you to leave
I wanted you to stay here holding me

[CHORUS:]
I miss you
I miss your smile
And I still shed a tear
Every once in a while
And even though it's different now
You're still here somehow
My heart won't let you go
And I need you to know
I miss you, sha la la la la
I miss you

You used to call me your dreamer
And now I'm living out my dream
Oh how I wish you could see
Everything that's happening for me
I'm thinking back on the past
It's true that time is flying by too fast

[CHORUS]

I know you're in a better place, yeah
But I wish that I could see your face, oh
I know you're where you need to be
Even though it's not here with me

[CHORUS x2]

(I miss you)

Another great song is "Not a day goes by" by Lonestar. It's very touching. The other songs you picked are also amazing songs. smilies/cheesy.gif
