Planning Your Funeral

Pastor Todd Wilken, of "Issues, Etc..." posed some interesting questions on a recent edition of the program. What hymns and passages would you choose to be sung and read at your own funeral?

Here are my current favorites:

Hymns:
1. This Joyful Eastertide (my favorite Easter hymn)
2. A Mighty Fortress (of course)
3. Abide With Me (for the sappy sentiment factor)

Passages:
1. Psalm 51 (I have always identified with David)
2. Matthew 28, the Great Commission (and my Confirmation passage)
3. Romans 1:16-17 (I am not ashamed of the Gospel... the righteous live by faith)

What would you choose?
