02 Activities

What the charity does

Praise Trust exists to serve churches and Christians by publishing hymns, songs, and psalms as a trusted resource that churches go to for both words and music. We aim to publish a curated collection of the most widely published quality hymns and songs, as well as a range of lesser-known items that we believe will enrich worship in local churches.
