Hymns for Funerals and Memorial Services
When planning your service, you will consult with the clergy and director of music in choosing music. Here are some suggested hymns from the Hymnal 1982 for funerals and memorial services.
208 The strife is o’er
287 For all the saints
356 May choirs of angels lead you
358 Christ the Victorious, give to your servants rest
388 O worship the King, all glorious above
390 Praise to the Lord, the Almighty, the King of creation
447 The Christ who died but rose again
448 O love, how deep, how broad, how high
482 Lord of all hopefulness, Lord of all joy
492 Sing ye faithful, sing with gladness
526 Let saints on earth in concert sing
608 Eternal Father, strong to save (Navy hymn)
618 Ye watchers and ye holy ones
620 Jerusalem, my happy home
623 O what their joy and their glory must be
624 Jerusalem the golden
625 Ye holy angels bright
635 If thou but trust in God to guide thee
637 How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord
645 The King of love my shepherd is
662 Abide with me, fast falls the eventide
669 Commit thou all that grieves thee
671 Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
680 O God, our help in ages past
688 A mighty fortress is our God
690 Guide me, O thou great Jehovah
