Hymnary.org belongs to the Christian Classics Ethereal Library (CCEL) located at Calvin University in Grand Rapids, MI.
Hymnary.org was started in 2007. In partnership with The Hymn Society in the United States and Canada, Hymnary.org now houses the Dictionary of North American Hymnology--making Hymnary.org the most complete database of North American hymnody on the planet.
Hymnary.org is funded in part through advertising and sales of hymn-related products, but it would not survive without the support of many generous people. There are many ways you can support this mission.
Volunteers play a pivotal role at Hymnary.org. If you would like to add a favorite hymnal, hymn texts, MIDI files, bibliographic information, proof existing information, become an editor or otherwise help out, see our Volunteer page.
