    I believe they have their own hymn book. Some hymns they've written themselves; others are Christian hymns.

    One of our Scriptures states that the song of the righteous is a prayer unto God.

    We publish our own hymnals which include both the sheet music and lyrics. Every so often the selection of hymns is reviewed, new hymns added, and a few others removed. Our current hymnal (published 1985) includes 341 hymns. We include hymns from the hymnals of other Christian sects (obtaining legal permission to reprint), while other hymns are only shared with other Mormon sects (such as the Community of Christ), and finally some hymns are unique to the LdS Church.

    The Table of Contents divides the hymns thusly:
    Restoration (1-61)
    Praise and Thanksgiving (62-96)
    Sacrament (169-196)
    Easter (197-200)
    Christmas (201-214)
    Special Topics (215-298)
    Children's Songs (299-308)
    For Women (309-318)
    For Men (319-337)
    Patriotic (338-341)

    Please note that the Canadian National Anthem is glued to the back inside cover in Canadian hymnals.

    Additionally, special musical numbers by individuals / groups (such as between discourses) are not limited to our hymnal.

    You won't find rock and roll in our worship.
