There are too many to list and during the last 5 years my relationship with God whom I serve has deepened as I have learnt to play the Church organ and have been lost in the wonder of his love and the peace that passes all understanding (even after a long and tiring day at work; incidentally, I learnt to play the piano/organ after work hours, when I would practice late into the evenings on a keyboard with big headphones around my ears so as not to disturb anyone, and be ready for the Church on Sunday :-)
Back to your question, a few of my favourite ones for some occasions:
1. Advent: O come, o come Emmanuel...
2. Christmas:
(a) What child is this...
(b) Christmas (Holy Communion): Let all mortal flesh, keep silence
3. New Year: Morning has broken...
4. Lent: I hear, thy welcome voice...
5. Good Friday:
(a) O sacred head surrounded...
(b) Just as I am, without one plea...
6. Easter:
(a) Jesus Christ is risen today...
(b) Easter (Holy Communion): Alleluia, sing to Jesus...
7. Praise and worship:
(a) Be still for the presence of the Lord.
(b) Youth music: Shine Jesus shine...
(c) Children: Give me oil...
8. Holy Communion: And now, O Father
9. Prayer: Sweet hour of prayer...
10. Evening: Abide with me...
Most Christians in the USA have not heard of no. 8, Be still... It’s a touching hymn, very common in the UK (where I learnt it while I was there) and last Sunday when I introduced it to the organist who plays in one of the churches near Boston I attend, he liked the tune a lot too. Including it here for a few moments of contemplation and peaceful reflection.

I think Casting Crowns are the best. And I like that they stay true to their Ministry calling even though they'd make a LOT more money touring and recording more albums.
