Oh, so many. I'll start with the classics, and then drop in a couple of contemporary 'hymns':
Be Thou My Vision (trad Irish)
I heard the Voice of Jesus Say (Bonar)
Man of Sorrows, what a name (Bliss)
(There's one a version of this with a modern tune that's great)
Nothing But the Blood (Lowry)
It is well with my soul (Bliss and Spafford
And some moderns:
In every Need (Phil Keaggy)
Actually a fusion of two hymns by Unitarians, but it takes all the best bits and smooshs them together, perfect for non-Unitarians like me
Our need to look to God, and the truth that is the power of prayer, that can "move the hand that moves the world, to bring salvation down". Listen here
Hosanna (Andrew Peterson)
Original lyrics. Reminds me of how much I need Christ, how I often forget I need Him. Great song, among many great Peterson songs.

With Melting Heart and Melting Eyes (Red Mountain, lyrics by John Fawcett 1740-1817)
This kind of belongs in the classics, because the lyrics are all 18th century, but the tune is new. A rich theological hymn with a moving new tune, it steps through an experience of grace from sinner to saint, with great joy! Listen here.
Come See the Morning (Nathan Tasker)
I think of this as an Easter altar call song. The atonement is on full display, with God's justice and mercy displayed at the cross, the battle bow no longer pointed at you an I. Helps that this is a guy I've had the pleasure of hanging with a couple of times, from my hometown. Listen here.
Literally could double the size of this post and not post enough. So I'll stop now.

Singing is my way to worship and glorify The Lord, so I can't choose just one song! I'll list my favorites:
1) Amazing Grace
2) You'll Come (by Hillsong)
3) High and Lifted Up (by Brooklyn Tabernacle; I sing this in my choir)
4) Revelation Song
and there are a lot more, but these are just some of my many favorites
