The hymns in this project are organized by Series A, B and C in the three-year lectionary cycle and by the particular Sunday of the church year in each of the three series. The hymns are also organized by books of the Bible and by particular themes. Each hymn that is text based rather than theme based makes direct usage of the language of the text, incorporating the exact words and phrases from the text arranged in rhyming and metrical verse form so as to be easy to sing. The entire project is based on the 1984 edition of the NIV translation of the Bible. Where specific words could not be found to rhyme or fit the meter of the line, great attention was paid to researching the Greek text to find another suitable English word that would be true to the text while still being easy to sing. All of the hymns are written to meters readily found in the Lutheran Service Book, Lutheran Worship, or The Lutheran Hymnal, and are set to suggested familiar tunes. But since most the hymns are set to meters that have multiple tune possibilities, the user is free to pick his/her own melody to which the congregation may sing the particular hymn. The tunes placed with each hymn are merely suggestions.
