CHRISTIAN SHEET MUSIC, LYRICS, MIDI HYMNAL -- ALL PSALMS MUSIC

Christian Sheet Music, by All Psalms Music provides a Midi Hymnal of original contemporary Christian Music for for each of the psalms, including song lyrics, midi files, sheet music and guitar chords for each psalm. 

All compositions are original and summarize the original wording and concept of a Psalm in the lyrics. Consistent with goals of teaching and praise, I've attempted to create melodies that stick in the mind like oatmeal. The work reflects a multiple year effort and will continue to grow and change over time.

The work encompasses a variety of musical styles, including traditional, contemporary, praise and worship, devotional, and doxologies. See the following as examples: Psalm 5, 8, 21, 22, 23, 29, 52, 57, 61, 63,  86, 95, 139, and the 119 series.

Songs include melody line, accompaniment, guitar chords, and lyrics in two formats. Pdf files are viewed and printed using Adobe software. Nwc files work with Noteworthy Composer shareware. Lyric pages are provided for viewing while a song is playing and for overheads during music worship.

The midi format is playable by most browsers and media players. Midi files are small, quickly downloaded, and the key can be modified to accommodate different vocal or instrument ranges.

Since sound cards differ, I have also included mp3 sound clips. These files tend to sound the same on all sound cards, unlike midi files. MP3 files are large. Thus, I included 15 second sound clips to provide the intended flavor of the song and melody. The complete mp3 file is provided upon request at the time of licensing.
