Hi Lark, you might find the SSA version of this appropriate for funerals or memorials: http://notenova.com/catalog/work/the-peace-of-god/
“No Man Is An Island” is also appropriate and available for SSA: http://www.hutchingsmusic.co.uk/choirsagainstracism/no-man-is-an-island/
“Thou knowest, Lord, the secrets of our hearts” is for SSAA and available from MusicSpoke: https://musicspoke.com/downloads/thou-knowest-lord
I hope some of these are suitable.
Chris

I have a piece that was written for my sister’s wedding called I Lived with Visions. It uses the text from Browning’s Sonnet from the Portuguese 26. (see text below).
I am currently working on an SSAA setting of Rosetti’s Remember. (see text below)
I have a setting of Red, Red, Rose. text by Robert Burns. Here is a link to the music and recording. https://www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/red-red-rose-ssa-digital-sheet-music/20381674
I lived with visions for my company,
Instead of men and women, years ago,
And found them gentle mates, nor thought to know
A sweeter music than they played to me.
But soon their trailing purple was not free
Of this world’s dust, — their lutes did silent grow,
And I myself grew faint and blind below
Their vanishing eyes. Then THOU didst come … to be,
Belovèd, what they seemed. Their shining fronts,
Their songs, their splendours, (better, yet the same,
As river-water hallowed into fonts)
Met in thee, and from out thee overcame
My soul with satisfaction of all wants —
Because God’s gifts put man’s best dreams to shame.
Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you plann’d:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
Better by far you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad.
