The New Song Book CD-ROM Software Edition

Music and song play an important role in worship. The Psalmist invites us to: Sing to the Lord a new song, and in recent years digital media has enabled us to access and deliver songs and music in new and different ways.

The Song Book of The Salvation Army (2015) is the first to be produced in a digital age and it is fitting that this CD-ROM has been developed to complement it.

This software makes the song book easily searchable whether for an alternative tune, a song to fit a particular theme or songs for a special occasion. Also a free full text search will be invaluable  particularly for meeting leaders when the first line of a song cannot be remembered!

For many years a concordance to the song book and a companion have helped us to find songs, inform us about authors and describe the circumstances about the writing of a song.

This software edition of the song book brings these features together although details are not included for every song.

I am grateful to the Pratt Green Trust for their partnership in creating this resource and I commend it to you as a valuable tool to enhance worship.
