At my memorial service (if there is one) I'd pick "The Sounds of Silence" by Simon and Garfunkel. Simple - Beautiful😏
If I can pick the song before I die, I'd say: all of them!

I tried to post, but my choice got modded. It's an old classic by Alberto y Lost Trios Paranoias, two words, first word rhymes with 'duck' second word is 'you'.

Are you sure you're not referring to that great work of musical art by Katía Perro?

No, I've never heard of her. I'm talking about track C from Alberto's 1978 double single "Head Down No Nonsense Mindless Boogie" - a must for every punk revival party. The album version was watered down to "Thank You". (And Cee Lo Green thought he was being original...)

"Death Cannot Hold the Resurrection Life"

Death cannot hold the resurrection life,
The life of God eternal manifest;
'Tis uncreated, indestructible,
'Tis Christ Himself, unconqu'rable, expressed.

Death cannot hold the resurrection life,
Though all its force against it may combine;
Death only gives it opportunity
To show the boundless power of life divine.

Death cannot hold the resurrection life,
The more interred, the more it multiplies;
All kinds of suff'ring only help it grow
And fruits of life abundant realize.

Death cannot hold the resurrection life,
Thru every block and barrier it breaks;
Conqu'ring the power of darkness and of hell,
It swallows death and victory partakes.

Death cannot hold the resurrection life,
All of God's fulness it will manifest;
God's righteousness and holiness it yields,
His glorious image by it is expressed.

Oh, may I know this resurrection life,
In every kind of death its pow'r outpoured,
In my experience ever realize
This life is nought but Christ my living Lord.

(Sorry you cannot hear the melody. Words by Witness Lee)

Amazing Grace

I know, I know, it's cliche, but it holds special meaning for me, and there is a reason why it's the classic funeral song.
