Singing hymns can invite the Spirit into our Church meetings, our homes, and our everyday lives. President J. Reuben Clark Jr. (1871–1961) of the First Presidency taught, "We get nearer to the Lord through music than perhaps through any other thing except prayer."1
The Church has provided a website for accessing the hymns (available in English, French, Portuguese, and Spanish). Music.lds.org includes instructions for leading music and for playing hymns using keyboards and also suggestions for choosing appropriate hymns for sacrament meeting.
Music and lyrics can be read, downloaded, or played directly on the website, which could be especially useful for members who do not have a piano or keyboard.
Music can be used at home as well as at church. The First Presidency has counseled: "Teach your children to love the hymns. Sing them on the Sabbath, in [family] home evening, during scripture study, at prayer time. Sing as you work, as you play, and as you travel together."2 Hymns can bring a spirit of love and unity into the home.
