ShareSong.org is a place on the Internet where Christian songwriters can publish their worship music (mp3s, midi, sheet music, chord charts, OHTs & lyric sheets) and have churches, worship pastors and home groups around the world use it freely for God's glory!

The mission of ShareSong.org is to “facilitate the distribution of Christian praise and worship music freely.”

So, what makes ShareSong.org unique?

  • United international volunteer effort - ShareSong.org is a resource available to all Christian songwriters to distribute their work and for worship leaders to obtain quality worship and praise music for free.
  • Simplified copyright - We believe that we have addressed the relevant copyright issues thoroughly so songwriters and worship leaders know exactly where they stand. ShareSong.org aims to make the distribution of praise and worship music as simple, direct and efficient as possible, facilitating a relationship between the writer and the user without the sometimes expensive "middle man".
  • Powerful search database structure - With the automated "submit” and “search” database functions the site is essentially self-managing, meaning that the potential of ShareSong.org is limited only by the number of people who share the vision of using the Internet to freely distribute and access praise worship music.
  • Not for profit ministry structure – We aim to complement what is already happening in the current praise and worship scene by offering an alternative method of music distribution without the complexifying these ministries with financial burdens to have their music distributed. We have set up a not-for-profit ministry structure to ensure that no one can own or profit from the material that has been contributed to ShareSong.org by the songwriters.
