Sorry about your sister. For a song try Bocelli/Brightman Time To Say Goodbye, It is a beautiful song always brings tears to my eyes. You will need the original of any CD you take for copyright reasons, the funeral director will have most songs like this. Or Bob Dylan The Answer is Blowing Tn The Wind

Amazing Grace is my favorite funeral song. I told my husband to play Love Rescued Me by U2 when I die. I love that song and it sounds like a funeral song. Any slow songs by Elvis are also kind of nice. We played Elvis songs at my mom's funeral. I think we played I Did It My Way and In The Ghetto.
Just find some slow songs by your sisters favorite artist(s).

I know that it sounds really weird, but the 'he lives in you' song from the lion king is a really emotional song at funerals. When my friend's dad died they had the children's chorus that his wife taught sing the song and everyone just started crying.
It was a very good choice, I'd recommend using it.

Ok, I'm kinda on a Josh Groban kick:
You Raised Me Up
The Prayer(duet with Charlotte Church)
On Eagles Wings

If you want to know a very good vocal coach try to visit https://tr.im/LqQYR an online vocal coaching tutorial. Everything, ranging from breathing fundamentals, vocalizing exercises, techniques on singing high and low notes, how to not go off-key/out of tune/off-sync, musicianship and music theory, proper diction and articulation, and a lot more are covered, all in our native language. It can be quite technical in nature, but it really helps since it covers the musical aspect of singing deeply and not just concentrates on how to impress people with your vocal range, riffs and runs and other cliches that do not necessarily make one a complete vocalist.

Many Rivers To Cross by Jimmy Cliff.It's very moving and the lyrics may reflect how your sister was feeling.May she rest in peace.My thoughts are with you all.

Gosh, I'm so sorry...please accpet my condolences.
I don't think words can express how it really feels to lose a loved one, I think I'd choose this song:
Song from a Secret garden by Secret Garden
Please pray to God to look after her..
xxGigi
PS. You can listen to a sample here (it's song No 2)

I'm so sorry to hear that,my heart goes out to you and your family.I think at funerals it is better to have just music! without words? something peaceful?Elgar has some lovely melodies, or perhaps Mozart x

Go Rest High On That Mountain by Vince Gill. He wrote it in memory of Keith Whitley who died of accidental alcohol poisoning. So very sorry for your loss....
