Download hymns/hymnals?

You are here

Thank you, Hymnary devs, for creating such a great resource! Is there a way to download all the songs for a hymnal? I'd like to start using OpenLP, but its missing a lot of music. I see references in prior forum posts about a CSV Export funtion, but I'm not seeing that anywhere on the site (maybe I'm just looking in the wrong places?)

FWIW, we use the Celebration Hymnal.

Thanks for your help,
Ben

There is a link to the CSV dump of the database under the Explore icon, but it is limited to 5000 lines and it will not give you a specific hymnal. We can send you the hymnal data spreadsheet on request. I do not think that I can add an attachment to the contact form, so lick on the "Contact Us" link at the bottom of our page.

I am looking for notes and lyrics to a song "where you gonna hide"

 

Regards

This song was originally published in Stamps-Baxter's 1941 book Super Specials No. 3. Fred Woodruff is songwriter. At this time Stamps-Baxter was publishing annual “special books” in addition to their 2 annual “new books”. These books geared towards quartets and more adventurous singing conventions. You can currently find a scan of Super Specials No. 3 on the Internet Archive.

hi,

I think I found this function in the past, becaue i populated a table with all hymns titles of a certain hymnal, but I can't remember how I did it or find it again, If that's possible, please advise.

thanks, Alex

Hi,

Yes, you should find an index box on a hymnal page. Select any index, such as first lines, scroll down to the bottom of the page of results, and click on "Export as CSV"

Thank you!

It doesn't seem possible to add the Hymnal 1940 to "My Hymnals".  Can that be changed?  My church still uses that hymnal.   Thanks.

It worked for me to add “Hymnal 1940” to “My Hymnals” so it should work for you. You will need to be logged in. I searched for the hymnal (HEPC1940) and then clicked the link found under the Index box that says “Add to my hymnals”
