What hymns/music will you have at your funeral?

Although by the time I die there likely will be few who would attend my funeral, I would much like beautiful music to be sung by all there, music that releases sadness and gives witness to faith, hope, and love.
I’d like the first hymn to be The Lord Is My Shepherd, LINK, set to the tune of Crimond. The words and tune set a wondrous stage of gravity and grace.
Prayers shall follow, leading to our second hymn. I have not decided between Love Divine All Loves Excelling, LINK set to Blaenwern, played very slowly and in low key, and Abide With Me, LINK, set to Eventide.
A brief mention of my person and my failings shall be made, followed by a sermon on the reality of God’s love that conquers death and brings us into God’s eternal glory.
To end, I want the grandest of all Easter hymns, so that all will be filled with the hope of the Resurrection in Christ Jesus our Lord. Thus, we shall end with a rousing rendition of Thine Be the Glory! LINK
The music, even in my mind, rouses my soul! What music shall you have at your funeral?

I will be cremated and my ashes thrown at random strippers by the handful while Yakety Sax plays in the background.

I have informed any and everyone who will listen and has the power that if they play "Amazing Grace" at my funeral I will haunt them forever.
Whatever else they decide is fine, just not that song.

That’s a bit extreme. I like the words to Amazing Grace, but I’ve heard it far too many times. I agree with you about not wanting it at my funeral.

Don't care. Might request 'Crank That' to keep it entertaining.

Am I invited?
I mean, you and Stout are having brunch and I'm not invited... You can at least let me go to your funeral. I'm really looking forward to it.

Some choice selections by 2 live crew, travis tritt and an opus by rick ainsley.
The procession will begin and end on a non stop repeat of the soundtrack from weekend at bernies.
It will be a joyous occasion.
Edit: brotha u need to get high or get laid...I suggest both.
