Wonderfully Versatile for Worship! — T.Knight, SEP-22
Yes!! To be able to adjust the PITCH and the TEMPO!! Fantastic! I’ve had this app for years and have always been utterly pleased with it! I can play my own instruments along with the piano because I can select how fast they play and in which key it plays. Where else can you find that?
Piano music will repeat as long as you want it to and it lets you select songs for a favorite playlist. Then there are all of the amenities that a hymnal provides that they have included such as topical index, index of metrics. Ability to export pages and to print songs, and more. Well worth every penny.

Hymns should be simple, full of the experiences of Christ, the appreciation for Christ, and in some measure elevated above mere prose.
A desirable hymnbook may be compared to a majestic building, with foundations made solid by accurate truth and sound doctrine, its superstructure elevated with the spirit of poetry, and its interior compartments containing the radiance of spirituality. Spirituality has been the fundamental test in our choice of hymns more often than high poetic literary style.”
6 distinctive features make this treasury useful in drawing nearer to the Lord:
1. Faithful restoration of the authors’ original words as far as practicable.
2. Hymns & spiritual songs for BOTH public & private worship.
3. Special attention to themes often overlooked in hymnals: sovereign grace, overcoming life, personal advent of our Lord, union with Christ, and the sweetness of abiding communion with Him.
4. Covers the broad lyric spectrum spelled out in Ephesians— “psalms, hymns and spiritual songs” (Eph. 5:19)
5. Guided by rare and deep associations of hymns with their history: lyrics breathed by dying lips, traced on prison walls, sung with hushed voices in catacombs, chanted joyfully at midnight, and avowed fearlessly at the fiery stake.
6. Inclusion of carefully researched biographical profiles of authors & composers, so that believers of all backgrounds can meet on the level ground of a common faith.
"What a blessing! Oh how the Lord furnishes a table in the wilderness!"
