Song Quest
One of the things we're excited about at PraiseCharts is the opportunity to invest into the future of song writing for worship. Songs that are in the top of the CCLI charts have been around for a long time and have become well established in the churches all around the world. But far out in front of those songs is a new wave of music not yet discovered. Some of these songs are written by well known song writers and worship leaders. Some of these songs are written by people you have never heard of, because they have never been "signed" by one of the major music publishers.In almost all cases, the songs featured in Song Quest have not yet had wide exposure around the world. Through Song Quest, we want to give you a taste of the future. More than just giving you a taste, we want to invite you to engage in a dialogue about these songs. Feel free to listen to them, and give us your feedback. In most cases, the feedback will go directly back to the artist. We'll keep an eye on your feedback, and if there is enough demand on one of these fresh new songs, we'll create a chart and feed it into our main catalog at PraiseCharts, where it can be available to download, print and play.
Song Quest Submissions
If you would like to submit a song for consideration in Song Quest, email an audio demo (MP3 format), lyrics, and chart (if available) to songquest@praisecharts.com. There are no guarantees that we will post them on Song Quest, but we can guarantee that we will listen to them for consideration. Please send one song per email. Please do not submit songs that you have not written. If possible, please include a short biography and headshot, and the story behind the song.

Listen to the full audio and let us know what you think of this song from Kevin Pledger. Here is the background to the song, as written by Kevin: My Pastor was going to be giving a message on Ephesians 4. While
reading the passage, there were just so many times that God was calling
His church to unity using the word "one." I began humming what would
later be the Bridge/Ending to the song thinking that it would be the
chorus. I wanted to use as many of the mentionings of the word "one"
as I could from this passage. Come And Dwell (Kevin Pledger)

Here is a new song worth listening that Kevin Pledger sent in for Song Quest. Listen to the full audio demo and let us know what you think. Here is the background as written by Kevin: I wrote this song in 2006 as I was about to go to the Integrity Worship
Songwriters Retreat. It was my submission that year. This song
literally comes from my prayer to my Heavenly Father. I love picturing
Him as a Dad. Anyone can biologically be a father, but it takes a
special man to be a Dad. That's who God is to me. Battle Hymn Of The Republic (Patriotic PraiseHymns)

Dan Galbraith has just come out of the studio with another set of contemporary hymn arrangements to add to our PraiseHymns collection. We'd love to hear what you think of this old patriotic hymn that we attempted to arrange into a true song of worship and glory to God. You can download the audio, orchestration, piano/vocal and chord charts at www.praisecharts.com/9027. As you listen, we would love to hear your feedback.

I am pleased to share another new song with you. I welcome your comments and would again be thrilled if you were to include it in your worship sets. It is more anthem-like in nature and would be well suited for a female vocalist with a mixed ensemble or choir. Thank you! Charts are now available at PraiseCharts!We Sing Hallelujah

I would like to share a new song that I just wrote. It is free for you to use in your congregations. I would be honored if you would "test it out" on your congregations and give me some feedback as to how it is received. Thanks to those of you who have given feedback - PraiseCharts caught on and invited me to write a chart for their online catalog. You can download the audio and lead sheet at PraiseCharts now! Enjoy and thank you - Toby
