Questions about Hymns for Piano

Can I use these to play in church?
Yes. Practice a hymn here at a slow tempo until it feels steady, then play along at the speed your congregation sings.
Do I need to read sheet music?
No. Falling notes and color-coded keys show what to press. The sheet music is there when you want to read along.
Can I download the sheet music?
Playing and practicing are free in your browser. PDF and MIDI downloads come with Premium, as for every song on the site.
