Piano Sheet Music Church Hymns was born out of a desire to teach students those hymns that they sing in church each week. As a piano teacher, I know that many students want to learn these hymns instead of waiting until they are in more advanced levels.

After considering this and having a high demand from my own students to learn the music in the church hymnal, GOD has led me to write easier arrangements in easier keys and share Piano Sheet Music For Church Hymns with my students and you. Monica Henley-Kritz. This is our second book of easier hymn arrangements. Originally, these books were designed for the students who want to learn to play hymns without having to wait years to get to the higher levels of the songs in hymnals. Since then, it has been brought to my attention that there are also church musicians who like these simpler arrangements. Not only are the songs easier to play but also, many of the songs are written in a lower key than the original song. Many hymns are written in a much higher key, which can be difficult for singing; however, many of these are easier for singing, since they are lower.

Also, there are no finger numbers in these volumes in order to prepare pianists for later playing in the hymnals, which have no finger numbers. Students need to learn to read the notes and not be dependent on finger numbers. Volume One and Volume Two correspond to Level 1 and Level 2 of most piano method books. An added bonus in this volume, Volume Two, is several arrangements of medleys plus the addition of guitar chords to all of the songs. Monica Henley-Kritz. I chose to do another volume in the key of C because of the high demand for songs in that key.
Volume 4 has several new features that I am very excited about:.There are 2 songs that THE LORD gave me to write included: “Jesus, The Hope of the World” and “At Thy Word.”.There is 1 song arranged by one of my piano students, Michaela Murdock. It is a beautiful arrangement of “Amazing Grace,” and I am so proud to include it.THE LORD led me to take the words of Ephesians 6:10-20 and put them to an old familiar tune, “We’ll Work Till Jesus Comes.” It is called “Armour of God,” and both songs are included in this volume.
My hope is that people will sing this tune every day, which will cause them to learn about these great tools GOD has given us to use in our Christian walk with HIM. This armour is given to us to help us live the Christian life as we should, as well as equip us to use the weapons we need to fight our daily “spiritual warfare.” Thank you for using and buying these books. May they be a blessing to many and a way to glorify and honor Our LORD And SAVIOUR, JESUS CHRIST! Proverbs 3:5-8 Monica Henley-Kritz.
