Songs of Praise, from Scripture in Song Recordings Ltd

This book was published by New Zealand label "Scripture in Song Recordings Ltd",  PO Box 17161, Greenlane, Auckland, founded by Dale and David Garrett.

It includes mainly short songs and praise choruses, suitable for repeated use (sometimes called "seven-eleven" style).

The book had a number of editions, both words-only, melody line and full score.  The listing below is based on the 3rd music edition published in 1973.  A full music score is provided for most songs, arranged by Ena Thompson and Bruce McGrail.   Lyrics, chords and notes are all hand-written, but this is of a very high quality so quite readable.



There are 16 songs for which neither words nor music is provided in this edition.  Instead the title and a  reference is given to another source where the hymn can be found - this may be due to reasons of copyright permission.   Overall the book contains 107 full songs, all in English.
