Music resources
for preachers in the
|
| A complete list and index of Hymns and Psalms is available on the Family Friendly Churches Trust web site - this includes midi music versions which each include the introduction and the correct number of verses - a possible solution if you're short of an organist! |
| HymnQuest is available from Stainer & Bell on CDROM and is highly recommended - it contains tens of thousands of hymns (words and recommendations on tunes), many of them modern and some unpublished elsewhere. It needs to be used in conjunction with a church copyright licence. |
| Another source of hymn words and tunes is Oremus, which is described as 'Daily prayer and prayer resources on the Internet' but includes a very useful selection of hymns for each Sunday, arranged according to the lectionary. |
| Midiforworship: a site with MIDI tracks for many hymns, including modern ones. Can be searched by first line, metre and tune. |
| Hymns.uk.com contains both new and older material, helpfully arranged into sections for special occasions and the Christian year. It is operated by Stainer & Bell and includes hymns by modern writers such as Fred Pratt Green. |
| CyberHymnal: thousands of tunes - lyrics, MIDI files, illustrations (warning - it gets addictive!). Nearly all are out of copyright, so little modern stuff. |
| The Worship Downloads website (USA) has midi and mp3 files for downloadable (most cost about £1.70) |
