The Hymn Project

The Hymn Project is a collection of hymns arranged for the classical and fingerstyle guitar. Most are free to download. Some are paid.

Hymn Project History

For many years now I’ve wanted to arrange good solid Biblical hymns for the classical and fingerstyle guitar. In December 2018, this project was started. In addition to arranging, I was learning about copyrights. And I did not want to steal other people’s work (Leviticus 19:11), so it was taken down again. The project was restarted in June 2021. Below you will find hymns arrangements for contemporary and traditional hymns. Due to copyrights, some of these are for purchase (it was the only legal way around the copyright and I’ve tried to keep the prices reasonable).


Each piece is set in standard notation and standard notation. Also, there are some arrangements for the 8-string classical guitar with Brahms tuning (i.e. with a high A string). But most are for the 6-string classical (or steel string) guitar.

Hymn Usage

These can be played in your church, as a special or offertory hymn, or for home groups. You can make a video or recording of the ones marked Public Domain (so we don’t infringe on copyright). If you do make a video or recording, please let me know. Enjoy…
