Amazing Grace
How Great Thou Art
It Is Well With My Soul
Go Rest High (on that mountain) - Vince Gill

I always tell my son I want to be cremated and placed in a clear jar on the mantel so I can see out.   :-)

When discussing this subject, my mother always said that she wanted to be buried in a glass casket so that she could see out - directly into the concrete vault.

She wound up with a standard wooden casket.

I can't post a performance of Philip Sparke's Euphonium Concerto, 2nd movement in particular, but that is a wonderfully compelling piece that just grips me.

Here's another of my selections:

Joaquin Rodrigo's Concierto de Aranjuez for guitar and orchestra, 2nd movement.

How about Someone Saved My Life Tonight for the irony?
