A few years ago we were asked to suggest some songs for a funeral. What followed was a really interesting “crowd sourced” list.
Over the intervening years, that article has consistently been one of the most popular on the website and has attracted comments such as “This has been the biggest help of all looking through 4 pages of trying to find the best ideas for funeral music”.
A digital hymnal player will always be ready, willing, and able to answer your music needs – without needing to take a vacation. We have actually sold hymnals to the church’s pianist or organist so they can take a vacation or would just like to sit with the congregation for a change after many years! The title of this book is Celebration Hymnal and it was written by Word Music. This particular edition is in a Loose Leaf format. This particular edition is in a Loose Leaf format. This books publish date is Jul 01, 1997 and it has a suggested retail price of $14.25. The Celebration Hymnal. No other marks noted. Very Good: A book that does not look new and has been read but is in excellent condition. No obvious damage to the cover, with the dust jacket (if applicable) included for hard covers.
We’ve been asked the same question again, this time for a memorial service where there will be many people of different faiths so what follows is a compilation of hymns and Christian songs as well as so-called “secular” songs that have appropriate lyrics. I may have miscategorised the odd one as I’ve made some assumptions on artists I wasn’t familiar with. Please feel free to add your own ideas into the comments.
The lyrics of songs become so much more poignant when remembering the life of a loved one. Many of these songs you will have sung before but the words will take on new meaning when you consider them for a service of remembrance.
We have an ever expanding repertoire of backing tracks (with on-screen lyrics if you require them) over at Worship Backing Band if you are in need of accompaniment.

Something to help with, and explain, the grieving process
We came across these “Angel Cards” that many bereaved people, counsellors and others supporting the bereaved have found so incredibly helpful that we offered to sell the cards on behalf of the artist (Musicademy doesn’t take any commission on these sales).
You get a neat little pack containing six postcards of beautiful perspex angel sculptures, each depicting a stage of bereavement.
Each card has a short but helpful description on the back about the stage shown and they are: ‘Denial’, ‘Anger’, ‘Bargaining’, ‘Depression’, ‘Acceptance’ & ‘Peace’.
The story behind the sculptures depicted on the cards “The Six Angels of Mercy” is told here.

What is a digital hymnal?
A digital hymnal is an electronic hymn player that provides a wide selection of traditional hymns and modern worship songs. Each digital hymnal differs in the music and options it offers. Please spend some time on our website checking out our products and comparing the song and feature options. If you still have questions on what hymnal would best fit your needs, please call me, Thom Moulin, the “Hymnal Guy.” I know these hymnals inside and out, because they are the only product I handle. I also have background experience in electronics, sound systems, and digital hymnal repair.
Why buy a digital hymnal?
Have you ever experienced trouble finding someone to accompany church services, choir practices, weddings, funerals, graveside services, bible school, nursing home or hospital visitation, etc.? A digital hymnal player will always be ready, willing, and able to answer your music needs – without needing to take a vacation. We have actually sold hymnals to the church’s pianist or organist so they can take a vacation or would just like to sit with the congregation for a change after many years! Or is your budget being strained trying to cover the ever-increasing cost of an accompanist? We have digital hymnals in various price ranges and the one-time cost is easily recouped.
We welcome the opportunity to talk with you at anytime and answer any questions you might have. Please do not hesitate to call me Thom Moulin, the “Hymnal Guy” at 814-227-8090 or toll free at 888-777-7056. We look forward to working with you to get the perfect hymnal to meet your needs.

We are taking orders for the
Hymnal Plus HT-400 now!
Why the Hymnal Plus HT-400? Whether you have trouble finding good, reliable organists (or other musicians), have no instrument or simply want good music available for outreach, the Hymnal Plus…
What if you only had a little box, the size of a hymnal, that could play any of the songs in the hymnal, in any key, at any tempo, and you could use it to accompany the soloist or the congregation? And if you could select one part to play by itself, each section of the choir could learn…
When cost is a big factor in your choice of digital hymnals the HymnMaster may fit your needs. This digital hymnal gives you a lot for very little money. Just enter the desired hymn number and the HymnMaster automatically plays the hymn, just like your own music accompanist.
