    The aim of this paper is to derive a general sampling theorem for solutions of second order singular eigenvalue problems with limit-circle endpoint(s). More precisely, the authors consider the Sturm-Liouville problem involving the equation \[ -y''+q(x)y=\lambda y\tag{\(*\)} \] and the condition \(y(a)\cos\alpha+y'(a)\sin\alpha=0\), \(\alpha\in[0,\pi)\). Assuming that the limit-circle case holds at \(\infty\), another boundary condition at \(\infty\) is derived using Fulton's approach, see \textit{C. T. Fulton} [Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 229, 51--63 (1977; Zbl 0358.34021)]. Then, for any \(\lambda\in\mathbb{C}\), sampling expansions of the solutions to (\(*\)) satisfying the boundary conditions are given. As applications, sampling expansions for the Legendre and Bessel functions as well as for the associated integral transforms are presented.
