Most requested hymns
If you're stuck for ideas as to which hymns to choose for your service, take a look at our list of the most popular hymns. Click on a hymn's title to see the full text. What's more, most hymns have a MIDI file available, which is playable from the hymn's page. Please note, the quality of the sound you hear is dependent upon your media player and the quality of your sound card and speakers.

When you have decided upon the hymns you wish to include in your service, you should seek the approval of your church minister who will also advise you on the appropriate number of verses that should be sung. If you plan to print a hymn's words in your Order of Service, please show the words to your minister to ensure they are the correct ones. Please also read the section Copyright Issues.

Copyright issues
Copyright exists in creative works such as hymns for 70 years after the death of the writer. During that period, it is illegal to reproduce the works in any form without the permission of the copyright holder (or their appointed agent). Therefore, should you wish to reproduce the text of a hymn in your order of service, you will need the permission of the copyright holder for which a charge of between £10 and £25 is usually made.

You will find details of the copyright holder at the bottom of each hymn's page, although many of the hymns are out of copyright due to their age.

Please note, you do not need the copyright holder's permission if you are only singing the hymns, since a wedding is a private function. It is only if you wish to print the hymn words (for example on an order of service) that permission is required.
