More features

Curated Collection of Trusted Songs

Ensuring that everything we publish is biblically reliable

Our collection is a curated selection of quality and trusted psalms, hymns and songs, drawing on what is published elsewhere. We conduct a careful review of all the words as part of our editorial process, and only publish only what agrees with our doctrinal basis.

Search Engine

Search for words, themes, metres, scripture references, and authors

Our search engine allows you to search all items by number, key words, first lines, theme, scripture reference and authors. You can also search tunes by name and metre.

New Favourites

Make your own selection

You can tag any item as a favourite and it will show up in your favourites list.

Copyright Management

For authors and composers

We provide a copyright management service for authors and composers, acting on their behalf to handle enquiries from other publishers.

Revised Words for Traditional Songs

Intelligibility for those new to church

It has been a core conviction for us that just as we read the Bible in contemporary English, so traditional hymns in archaic language should also be sensitively revised to help those who are new to church to worship God.

One Version of Every Psalm

Singing the psalms today

Increasingly, churches are rediscovering the Book of Psalms as the deepest source of spiritual truth. Our collection includes a version of every psalm, some that are close to the text.

What People Say

Praise! has proved to be an invaluable resource for us to use in our corporate worship, breathing fresh life into many good older hymns and bringing together some of the best modern songs of today. We warmly commend it to other churches.

Mark Lawrence

Christchurch, Dunstable

We have found it helpful to reverently sing many well-loved hymns in modern English. It has also been refreshing to learn many new, Christ-exalting hymns.

Paul Williams

Swindon Evangelical Church

As both a pastor and a musician, I am so thankful for Praise! Having easy access (particularly via the website) to a theologically rigorous set of old and new hymns in contemporary language has been such a blessing to me and those I serve.

Will Cockram

Cuckfield Baptist Church

We have enjoyed singing familiar older hymns in updated language and learning new hymns and songs, especially from the psalms. All in all it has been a great asset in our public worship.

Kenneth Brownell

East London Tabernacle Baptist Church, London

‘From its inception I have always loved and supported the Praise! project and ethos. As a church leader and musician I want access to the absolute best of old and new, presented in contemporary and accessible language. Praise! is the only place that gives me all of this backed by an absolute certainty about theological rigour.’

Adrian Reynolds

Associate National Director, FIEC

For a pastor-teacher who wants to preach from the Scriptures each week & to have songs that fit with the Scriptures taught, the Praise! website is a wonderful tool to help achieve that goal.

John Samuel – Senior Minister

Duke Street Baptist Church, Richmond, Surrey

At last some of the great old hymns are made accessible to a younger generation.

Paul Pease

Hook Evangelical Church, Surbiton, Surrey
