About the text

If you are going to put a passage in your memory, you should know exactly what you are putting there. This page says where every word comes from.

Whole passages, in order

The rule behind all of it: if a song claims a passage, it sings the passage. Nothing added, nothing skipped.

That is less common than it sounds. A song named for a psalm often turns out to be verses one and five with a chorus in between, or the first half with the difficult part left off. Those can be good songs. They are just not the passage, and you cannot memorise from them.

So these run start to finish: each verse arrives in the order you would read it. Some verses then come back as a chorus, so a song repeats where the page does not. What repeats is always the passage’s own words, never something invented to fill a gap.

Two kinds of text on this site

ESV  English Standard Version

Word for word from the ESV, used under licence from Crossway. No alteration, no paraphrase. What you learn from these songs will match the ESV in your hand, in your church, and on your memory card.

If you are memorising, these are the ones.

KJV updated  King James, modernised

The Revelation albums came first, and they use the King James — but the King James read aloud in 2026 puts a wall between a listener and the text. So the language was updated by hand, phrase by phrase, checking against the Hebrew and Greek, a concordance and the modern translations to keep the sense of the original.

Complete and in order, like everything else here. But it is one person’s careful rendering, not a published translation, and it would be wrong to pretend otherwise.

Do not memorise against these. Sing them, learn the shape of the book, enjoy them — but when it comes time to memorise, use a translation you can point at. That is why the labels are on every row of the passage index.

The label deliberately avoids abbreviating. NKJV, MKJV, KJ21 and MEV are all real published translations by other people; this is not one of them and should not look like one.

Where this is going

New work is ESV. The reason is exactly the one above: Scripture memory needs a translation you can name, and the ESV gives that cleanly. The Revelation catalogue stays available and stays honestly labelled, but the direction is settled.

How the music is made

The music is generated with AI, using Suno, and the album art is AI as well. That is worth saying plainly rather than leaving anyone to work it out.

What is not generated is the text. The words are Scripture — either the ESV exactly as published, or the King James updated by hand as described above — and every track is checked against the text before it goes out. Where a model mispronounces or garbles a word, the take is redone.

Reasonable people disagree about AI in worship music. The position here is that the tool does not sanctify or spoil the words, and that being open about which is which is the least anyone is owed.

Using these

Free to download and free to use — at home, in a classroom, in a car, in a church. No account, no email address, no paywall.

If you are a worship leader or a teacher and want something that does not exist yet — a chord chart, a passage that has not been set — say so. That is useful to know.
