Religious Music
Browse Religious Music piano sheets with calm, playable notation. Religious music is music made for worship, prayer and sacred celebration. ZenPiano's Religious Music shelf is mostly Christian, and it spans more than a thousand years of church music, from plainchant to songs written for today's worship bands. The oldest layer is chant. Gregorian chant, the central tradition of Western plainchant, is unaccompanied sacred song in Latin that developed mainly in the 9th and 10th centuries, and Alma Redemptoris Mater appears here in a piano setting. Hymns form the heart of the shelf. Amazing Grace was published in 1779 by the English clergyman John Newton and is among the most sung hymns in the world. How Great Thou Art began as O Store Gud, a Swedish hymn Carl Boberg wrote in 1885, and reached English in Stuart Hine's 1949 version. Contemporary worship music, also called praise and worship, is a newer genre that has developed over roughly the past 60 years and sounds close to pop. It is usually led by a band with a guitarist or pianist at the front, and the shelf includes songs such as Hillsong Worship's What A Beautiful Name and Casting Crowns' Who Am I. Christmas carols and a Hanukkah song, I Have a Little Dreidel, round it out. Hymns and worship songs suit the piano well, since pianists often lead them. Many pieces here have beginner arrangements, and a hymn's chordal texture is a good way to practise playing full chords under a melody.
