Why not do Amazing Grace. It's not known by many but if you go to the Scottish Heritage site in Scotland the melody is listed there as Ancient Scottish. The words were written by a seaman who converted to God and the song was imported to the USA.
If you decide to do this piece, because it's so well known, I would suggest you sing it differently than you usually hear it done. I did an arrangement for The Good Folk that's on the web that is different, and extremely moving spiritually. If you wanna hear it go to http://artists.mp3s.com/artists/89/the_good_folk.html and click on "Amazing Grace." For you AOL people (artists.mp3s.com/artists/89/the_good_folk.html).
