We have realised the value of our collection of hymns and songs in PowerPoint format and so want to offer and extend this. In particular we want you to tell us what you want.

Although the list is not yet complete, we have placed the first batch of hymns and songs on-line. We have nearly brought Year 2 up to date and have completed 2 months of Year 1.



There will be a collection of songs for each of  year of IDEAS:
  • Year 1 will contain all the hymns and songs that we offered through IDEAS from July 2010 until the end of June 2011. 
  • Year 2 will contain all the hymns we offer between July 2011 until  the end of June 2012. In addition from November there will be 5 hymns and songs each week that are nominated by our users. Each week (subject to copyright consent) we will add the 5 hymns or songs that are the most nominated by our users.
  • Year 3 and subsquent years will continue the pattern of offering the hymns from IDEAS for that year plus the 5 nominated songs each week.
The cost will be £25 for access to the current year's collection of songs and access to previous years are £15. Existing IDEAS members should note that they will automatically gain access to the IDEAS Collection for the months they have bought and will also be able to nominate hymns and songs at no extra cost.

There are many advantages to working this way:
  • All our hymns and songs are supplied as "ready to use" PowerPoint files with photographic backgrounds. They can be quickly inserted into your own presentation using either the "Insert Slide from Files" command (2002/3) or "Reuse Slides" command (2007/10). There is no complex editing required to make use of them.
  • You are not tying yourself to a single hymnbook. Our hymns and songs are available in multiple versions to match a range of hymnbooks. You do not need to spend a large sum of money on new hymnbooks.
  • At a time when new hymns and songs are being written each week you are not locking yourself into a selection for the next 30 years.
  • Because we are the Family Friendly Churches trust we offer a wide range of great children's songs.
  • The collection will remain permanently on the web site so you will be able to download the hymns and songs as you need them, rather than holding them on your own system. This means that you can access them on any machine when you wish.
  • Because it is user driven the collection will contain the hymns that you want rather than what we think you should sing.
Why not sign up now to the first 2 years worth, start nominating songs right now and help us to build a really great collection.
