Overview

Favorite Hymns for Kids (Volume 1) is a collection of easy, two-hand piano arrangements of five popular hymns. Though written for children, it is appropriate for any beginner regardless of age. Volume One includes these hymns arranged for the early beginner:

  • "What Can Wash Away My Sin"
  • "Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee"
  • "When I Survey The Wondrous Cross"
  • "Come, Thou Almighty King"
  • "Jesus, What A Friend for Sinners"

Combining simple arrangements, instructions on how to "read" a hymn, and music theory, Favorite Hymns for Kids is a proven method to train beginner students not only how to play the hymns on the piano, but also to develop a love for hymns and learn the great truths of the Christian faith.

"As a teacher, hymn writer, and one who has played the hymns for my church for nearly 30 years, I have learned what works - what kind of arrangements beginner students can read, understand and actually learn to play. I have tested these hymns with my own students and they love them "
