### 4/5 — Good app

*2020-03-14*

Like that I have the lyrics so I am able to ding along.  Extremely worthwhile for me. Only problem is that the favorites option does not work.

### 2/5 — Unhappy in Maryland

*2013-12-08*

Should have read the reviews.  There is NO music just the lyrics.

### 2/5 — Where is the innovative hymnal?

*2013-10-13*

I was buying a hymnal, where is it? I have lyrics. Lyrics are useless to me without music. This is not an innovative way to carry my hymnal around. I open my hymnal & voila! Music. I open this & I have lyrics & song history. I would really like my money back please, is did not pay 5 dollars for a book of history & lyrics, I need a hymnal. This should not be called a hymnal, then
people looking for actual music will not be confused, frustrated & end up feeling duped. Thank you. 

Ok in all fairness, if this had actual music, it would be an awesome hymnal. If it had a scriptural index & music it would be a phenomenal hymnal. 
I am willing to pay for such a hymnal & I hope you make it. This does have a lot of cool info.

### 4/5 — Worth the download

*2011-09-11*

After downloading this app I found it to be just what I was looking for. I wanted the lyrics to the SDA hymnal so I could sing along at worship. I especially liked the section on choruses. The search engine is easy to use and quick and doesn't bog down as some of the pricier apps seem to do. Of course it would be nice to hear music for some of the less familiar hymns but I can find that elsewhere if needed. Overall this is a good app for the money.

### 1/5 — Notes?

*2011-09-04*

Downloading this application, I was hoping to have the notes to go with the words of the hymns.  What good are words to me without the music?  Very disappointed!

### 3/5 — Very good app.

*2011-05-23*

We love it.
