Oh, btw, add "Precious Lord take my hand" (or "Take my hand, precious Lord") to that list. Also, I'm looking for a copy of Alison Krauss' "Heaven's Shore" for a funeral on Wednesday... anyone have it??
I asked $75 when I first started and I'm up to $125 (not my doing, the funeral home paid me that once for a really involved gig and started telling everyone else that it was my fee and that's what I get).
They usually provide my organist - I have a few that I like to work with and they'll ask them first.
