Hymns   :)
Farther along we'll...
I'll b singing up there...
He's sweet I know..
What a friend we have...
Blessed Assurance...
Precious Memories....
We'll understand it better....
When we all get to heaven...

Songs (perhaps)
He's Marvelous...Hawkins
For the good of them... Tommies
Trials make you strong... Ron Kanole

OK ::)

I've heard many of the songs that he posted in a cogic church. So to the Original poster, You can use those in a cogic funeral if you want to. And if you dont know what to play, just play Yes lord, everybody will know that and they will probbaly catch on.

Imma add some standards like "I Will Make The Darkness Light", "When I See Jesus", "When Praises Go Up, Blessings Come Down" and the classic: "I Won't Complain"
All I know is COGIC and these songs are usually sung(among the aforementioned songs) at a COGIC "Homegoing Celebration"
