The New New National Baptist Hymnal Song List
The New Baptist Hymnal is being prepared as a fresh, beautifully organized collection of Christ-centered songs for worship, devotion, and spiritual growth. This hymnal is designed to honor the rich musical heritage of Baptist churches while offering a balanced blend of classic hymns, gospel favorites, and treasured songs that have shaped Christian worship for generations.
Its purpose is simple: to help believers sing biblically, worship joyfully, and grow spiritually through the power of scriptural music. Every hymn has been selected with careful attention to doctrine, clarity, and congregational usefulness. Whether used in Sunday worship, personal devotion, family gatherings, or choir ministry, the New Baptist Hymnal aims to lift the hearts of God’s people toward Christ with songs that are both doctrinally sound and deeply encouraging.
This hymnal celebrates the power of singing together as the church. Scripture teaches that believers are to speak to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in their hearts to the Lord (Colossians 3:16 KJV). The hymns chosen for this new collection reflect themes of salvation, discipleship, comfort, hope, evangelism, and the glory of God, making it a valuable tool for every part of the Christian life.
What follows is the complete list of hymns included in the New Baptist Hymnal.
