How to Project and Reprint Music Legally


If you have questions regarding reprinting or projecting music for worship, please email or watch the recorded Copyrights and Worship webinar to gain valuable information and learn how to take advantage of new technology and comply with copyright laws.


  2. How do I know which copyright company (license) covers the song I want to use? You can go to Songs and note which license, if any, is necessary to reproduce the song. We also have compiled several lists of the hymns/songs in Lift Up Your Hearts that are covered by these major companies. For a copy of these lists, please email [email protected] (link sends e-mail).
  3. How can I avoid asking permission? Sing from pew edition hymnal, or reprint or project only hymns/songs that are in the Public Domain.
  4. How do I request permission? To seek copyright permission from companies and individuals, write a letter, send an email, phone them, or send a fax. We have created a basic outline (Word | PDF) that you can follow.
