Grace and Songs

One of the amazing things about the UM Hymnal is its categorization of songs.  As I was preparing for this weekend's Confirmation trip in which we'll discuss Prevenient, Justifying, and Sanctifying grace, I began to think of worship songs and hymns for each type of grace.  Has anyone done a categorization of contemporary music for these that they'd like to share?The following is a list I've made for this weekend.
Prevenient:
  • Forever (Chris Tomlin)
  • The Stand (Joel Houston)
  • Our God (Chris Tomlin)
Justifying:
  • Nothing But the Blood (Matt Redman & many others)
  • Jesus Paid it All (Bigstuf Band, not sure of original artist)
  • God is Not Dead - Like a Lion (Newsboys)
Sanctifying:
  • Christ is Risen (Matt Maher)
  • I Will Follow (Chris Tomlin)
  • Everyday (Hillsong)
What would you add/change?  Other suggestions?
