Prayer for the Nation - Children's Music Resources

We know that some faith communities are gathering children for prayer services. As you prepare music for these liturgies, we offer this list of music suggestions.

In support of your efforts, OCP is extending free, one-time-use of any (assembly edition) title administered by OCP Publications/New Dawn. You need not contact our office for permission when using OCP/New Dawn selections for these remembrance liturgies. Please be mindful to include all copyright information, followed by the statement "Used with permission."

If a song is copyrighted (or administered) by anyone other than OCP, you'll need to contact the appropriate agent to secure reprint permission. Regarding GIA titles, "GIA offers free copyright permission to reprint congregational parts for any of its music in religious services related to the events of September 11."
