Many songs do this for me but one of the most moving songs even to this day for me is One Tin Soldier that was the theme song for Billy Jack in 1971.
This may sound odd, but the Doors when you are Strange is also a song that moves me.
Elvis's Love Me Tender always moved me.

Peanut Butter Prophet, that is Annies song and it moves me too maby because my wife sings it for me from time to time to show her love for me.
I just melted when we were dating and she sang that to me.
I in turn sang Elvis Love Me Tender to her.

By some definitions of spiritual,
especially "raising the human spirit",
certainly.
A Welsh rugby crowd in full voice...
"Men of Harlech" (also the version in "Zulu")
"Forever Autumn" from "War of the Worlds"
"The House of the Rising Sun"
"California Dreaming"
"Hotel California"
"Suicide is Painless" (M*A*S*H* theme)
Much of Dire Straits "Brothers in Arms" album
"Fairytale Of New York" The Pogues
Eleanor Rigby *and*
Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds
And "Poor Man's Moody Blues" by Barclay James Harvest.
So many songs, but I lean to the wistful over the exultant, as a rule.
The minstrel boy to the war is gone,
In the ranks of death you'll find him.
His father's sword he has girded on
And his wild harp slung behind him.
"Land of song," said the warrior bard,
"Though all the world betrays thee,
One sword at least thy rights shall guard,
One faithful harp shall praise thee."
The minstrel fell but the foeman's chain
Could not bring his proud soul under.
The harp he loved ne'er spoke again,
For he tore its chords asunder
And said, "No chains shall sully thee,
Thou soul of love and bravery!
Thy songs were made for the pure and free,
They shall never sound in slavery!"

OMG Lots! (Great question, btw)
To limit myself, I'll say that I am always moved by both Man of the Hour (Pearl Jam) and Leader of the Band (Dan Fogelberg) as both remind me of my father who passed away in 2003.

Seven Days - by Sting.
I like the 5/4 beat and the melody... and one could "read" meanings in the lyrics, too.
Peace be with you.
