SEARCH

Search tips:

If you are looking for songs to sing, I’ve listed songs under some themes – below.

Songs are listed alphabetically by name – click on the appropriate letter to access a list. If you can’t find a song you’re expecting, try searching for alternative spellings, or a phrase from the chorus.

If you know the Roud Number search for RN[number], so a search for Roud Number 6093 would be typed in as “RN6093” –  which should find Paddle your own Canoe.
