Open Hymnal Project - Has anyone used this and found it good to use
-
There are a couple of pieces we are singing this week that were found at this web site.
So I was just wondering if any of you have used it and are happy with it, of find issue with it.

The engraving is usable if not up to professional standards; Lo how a rose is very like the credited Praetorius setting but obviously based on some simplification thereof. With the originals all on Google books or IMSLP, and something else in the pews, why bother?Thanked by 1donr

Don’t forget hymnary.org
I engrave all my own hymns for our worship aids, but I reference hymnody.org for everything as the search tool is comprehensive, you can compare texts, etc. etc. -
I would also recommend the Sacred Music Library

Cyberhymnal harkens back to original texts. A great resource!
