How Do You Decide On a Funeral Song?

There are endless options for funeral songs out there so making a decision can seem overwhelming!

To help make your decision easier, we’ve created the best list of funeral songs to help you narrow down your options and decide which funeral song or funeral songs to choose for your loved one’s service.

4 Simple Tips for Choosing The Right Funeral Music

If your loved one’s service is a traditional funeral service, you might want to stick with more traditional song choices (for example, ‘Amazing Grace’ or ‘The Prayer’). If the service is a celebration of life or memorial service, it might be more appropriate to choose music that is more reflective of your loved one (such as your loved one’s favourite song or a song whose lyrics remind you of them or how they lived their life).

Consider the Tone of the Service

With the tone of the service in mind, do some research and make a list of potential songs that you like and that you think would be a good fit for your loved one’s service.

Make a List of Songs That You Like

Once you have narrowed down your list of potential songs, play each song for close family members & friends who knew the deceased well. Ask which song they think best honours your loved one. You can also ask if they have any song suggestions you may have missed.

Listen To The Lyrics

The lyrics of a song are just as important as the melody. It’s important to listen carefully to the lyrics of each song & make sure that the lyrics match the message you’re trying to convey about your loved one. It’s helpful to have the lyrics to the songs open while you’re listening. Remove any songs from your list that don’t convey the desired message.

Ask Your Family For Input

Once you have narrowed down your list of potential songs, play each song for close family members & friends who knew the deceased well. Ask which song they think best honours your loved one. You can also ask if they have any song suggestions you may have missed.
