What’s New Version 6.10.28
Added "Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee" and "Ode to Joy" sheet music on request.
Description
This app contains 11 hymnals containing lyrics to 1400+ hymns and Christian songs (along with some audio). The audio does not include the lyrics.
The reason this app is not free is it contains lyrics to over 90 copyrighted Christian songs and hymns (audio may not be included for all copyrighted songs at this point).
Some of these included hymns are:
- How Deep the Father's Love for Us
- How Great Thou Art
- You are my all in all
- The Power of the Cross
- He Touched Me
- In Christ Alone
- Majesty
- Great is Thy Faithfulness
- The Crayon Box Song
- and many more
