Welcome to HymnWiki

About HymnWiki

HymnWiki is a site dedicated to hymns, children's songs (those associated with churches and religion), religious anthems, church music, other music commonly grouped with hymns, and compilations of such. HymnWiki aims to categorize most of the hymns in existence, as well as to host sheet music, MIDI files and lyrics for as many of these as legally possible. HymnWiki is for hymns of all faiths notwithstanding there is a large focus on the music and poetry of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, past, present and future. HymnWiki began in April of 2007. See About HymnWiki for more information. If you are a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and would like to use HymnWiki for church purposes, review the Helps for Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints first.

Announcements

  • I'm phasing out most external links on HymnWiki (except in the links section of the sidebar, user profiles, and maybe some other places). If you see any broken ones, please report them (either to Veramet, or on the discussion board). If you want to add external links, please Archive them on Archive.org and link to the archived page instead. Please do not add new YouTube video links, nor similar links to external media (media at Archive.org is fine). When doing an external link to a source, please cite the source here, too (even if the link is an Archive.org link).
  • Terminology and articles have finally been updated to reflect President Russell M. Nelson's October 2018 talk on the name of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. If you find any I missed, please let me know.
  • The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has announced that they are going to create a new hymnal and a new children's songbook. We don't know when, but it could be soon.
