Hymn chords, free to read

Chord charts for church pianists, written by one. Every chart transposes to any key in one click — so when the singer needs it lower, you are not starting over. Nothing to sign up for.

By ear is the way here, but readers are welcome too: almost every chart has a Show the sheet music button that opens a lead sheet — melody, chords and the first verse — in whatever key you picked, with a button that plays the tune.
