"Why is this your favorite songbook?"
I’m glad you asked! This is my favorite for lots of reasons.
I have recommended this songbook to my friends for years, and now I’m delighted to recommend it to you. Here’s why:
It has lots of songs.
Twelve hundred, to be exact!
It has all sorts of songs.
In this book you’ll find everything from Broadway show tunes to patriotic songs to lullabies to hymns to rounds to ….okay, you get the idea.
The songs are easy to find.
This book is exceptionally simple to use.
The songs are grouped by subject into chapters.
The chapters are organized alphabetically, from
- America

- City
- Creativity
- Dreams and Fantasies
to
- Time and Changes
- Travelling

There are also multiple indexes.
Can you remember only the title or the first line of a song?
- “I am just a poor boy….”
- “I’m sitting in a railway station…”
- “I love to go a-wandering…”
- “Start spreading the news…”
No problem! Look it up in the main index.
You can remember that it's a Scottish song? Check out the "Cultures" index.
You know it's from "The Wizard of Oz"? Look in the "Musicals" index.
You're pretty sure that it was written by Arlo Guthrie? Try the "Artists" index.
Guitar chords are included
Even if you know only a few chords, strum along while you sing. A guitar makes a simple singsong into something special.
The book is easy to hold.
It's just the right size and weight so that you can hold it comfortably.
It's durable.
The sturdy coil-bound cover holds the pages securely.
I've had my copy for many years, and it's still in great shape.

Rise Up Singing really is the best songbook I've ever seen. If you'd like your own copy, you can buy one now on Amazon.
Singing in a group - especially with your family, around the campfire - is a wonderful way to create warm happy memories. I wish you many joyful hours, singing together!
