The first batch of 13 hymns were released Thursday, marking the beginning of a series of releases until the complete hymnbook is published in 2026. The creation of the new hymnbook involved a rigorous selection process, according to a church statement, with a committee reviewing thousands of hymn submissions from around the world.
The faith's authorities established five guiding principles for the selection: Songs that increase faith, teach gospel doctrine, invite joyful singing, comfort the weary, and unify members. The completed "Hymns—for Home and Church" will feature between 450 and 500 hymns and children's songs, available in both digital and print formats for use at home and in church services.
