Contemporary Christian song for memorial service?

My grandpa passed away and I'm making a slide show of pictures of him.

I'm looking for a country or contemorary Christian song that captures him, but I don't really listen to that kind of music so I don't know any good songs.

He devoted his life to the Lord and lived life to the fullest, traveling and working very hard.

Any ideas?

Update:

***LOL @ Monkey D Luffy. I don't think The Friday Song is the best fit, but thanks for the laugh :-D

Update 2:

Thanks to all of you for your kind words.

    Go Rest High On That Mountain by Vince Gill and friends. The live version with Ricky Skaggs on mandolin is the best. I also like Beyond A Shadow Of A Doubt by Dale Ann Bradley, but you'd have to search the Internet or a specialty record store to find that one.

    You might also consider this one. It's one of my personal favorites, and would be very appropriate for a man who had dedicated his life to the Lord: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tKYoqNQs9TI

    Van Morrison wrote a song made popular by Rod Stewart. I played it at my dad's memorial.

    Have I Told You Lately That I Love You.

    Van wrote it about his love for God.
