Christian Sheet Music for PianoMusicnotes provides you with the largest catalog of Christian piano sheet music. Browse our selection of gospel and worship piano sheet music and find something new to add to your music stand today!

At Musicnotes.com, we are proud of our extensive library of Christian piano sheet music. We know how difficult searching for any type of sheet music can be, and how finding music in the Christian genre can be especially challenging. Traditional brick-and-mortar establishments maintain a limited selection of Christian piano music (if they carry any at all), and that inventory is likely updated quite infrequently. With all these challenges, finding new piano worship music in stores can feel like an impossible task.

Musicnotes.com changes all of that. In addition to the hundreds of thousands of officially licensed titles available in our catalog, we add titles to our Christian category each week. That means that you can find everything from classic Christian hymns to the latest hits from your favorite Christian music station. We even have easy worship songs on piano for beginners to get their feet wet.

This article is supposed to be comprehensive. So if you are brand new to piano and music theory, I would recommend taking your time while reading through the theoretical parts. Understanding the different concepts will help you later in your musical development.

There are many ways you can go about learning the piano. The most common one is learning how to read sheet music, which requires an understanding of notation in the bass and treble clef.

While being able to read notes is undoubtedly valuable, it can be a rather slow and lengthy process.

Even though 88 keys may seem like a lot to remember, there are, in fact, just 12 different keys. As you can see on the piano keyboard diagram below. These 12 notes repeat throughout the rest of the keyboard.

There are two most common ways to learn the notes of all 12 major keys. You can either memorize them or learn a simple formula on how to build scales which will also tell you the notes of a given key, since major scales and major keys share the same notes.

As I mentioned earlier, every major scale consists of 7 notes. The distance between each note of the scale is called an interval. The smallest interval we can play is called half step (H), which is simply the closest note to the one we are playing (either black or white). The second important interval to know in order to build a scale is a whole step (W), consisting of two half steps.

Now that you understand the two basic intervals. Here is a formula for creating major scales: W, W, H, W, W, W, H. As an example, I built a G major scale using the rule above, where I show how the formula works.

Tip: When playing chords, make sure to use correct finger placement. For example, when playing G major chord, play the note G with the thumb, the note B with your middle finger, and D with your pinky. By doing so, you will minimize the tension in your hand, and start forming the right habits.

As you may have already figured out a chord progression is nothing more than a sequence of 2 or more chords. Majority of worship songs are built around one or more different chord progressions, which generally tend to repeat throughout the song.

TIP: Often, the first chord of the song tells us the key of the song, but not in this case. This can cause you to have a problem singing the melody. If so, start with 4 beats of G major chord to establish the key of the song in your ears.

Probably all of us face moments when we reach a plateau in our playing. Those are times when it's a good idea to seek out some inspiration to overcome the rut. If you're bored of playing the same chords over and over again, wondering how to make your chords sound more...

I was around 13 years old and had been thinking about quitting my piano endeavors because, for the past six years, I was almost exclusively playing classical music, which as a kid I didn't enjoy. As much as my classical training helped me develop my piano technique,...
