This is the first volume in a series of music books containing well-known worship songs for the progressing piano student. Aimed at advanced beginners (1-2 years of previous piano lessons), these simple arrangements keep the melody line in the right hand and focus on developing skills such as finger independence, pedaling, using broken chords to accompany a melody, parallel motion, and two-note slurs.

With its practice techniques, pedagogical hints and lesson plans, Easy Piano Praise makes an ideal instruction resource for piano teachers, beginning parish pianists and music directors, whether the students are children or adult beginners.

Easy Piano Praise contains music for 10 of OCP's most popular worship songs, including Michael Joncas' "On Eagle's Wings," John Foley's "The Cry of the Poor" and Bernadette Farrell's "Christ, Be Our Light." Because most songs are in the same key as they appear in the Keyboard Accompaniment Book for Today's Missal, Easy Piano Praise allows younger musicians to accompany times of worship with children.
