I've not done any info or advice posts in a bit so I'm going to kick my own behind and get some done.
"We know the songs we want but we don't know what order to put then in" ...
My advice is this.
Going in - chose the one that the lyrics don't matter as much, so if there is one that is instrumental or Instantly recognisable then pick that for coming in. as we humans are pretty basic and not the best at multi tasking. So coming in, maybe carrying a coffin, finding a seat, turning a mobile off AND listening to meaningful lyrics ... that's a nope
In the middle - boom, here's your lyrics one, here's your message one, you've got a captive audience of sat down people, get them here
On the way out - set the tone , chose the one that sets the tone to how people feel as they leave, so your poignant farewell one , your cheeky sense of humour one or your big dance out party banger...
But always remember, you don't need to stick to 3 , some people didn't appreciate music, don't have any, only two that feel right no problem let's have two, you want more than 3 , no problem just have the discussions
