Hymns and Children’s Songs in the Public Domain

This chart shows the copyright status for each song in the hymnbook and Children’s Songbook of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Information is based on my own research, so it’s possible there are errors – if you see any issues, let me know!

Printed works published before 1929 are in the public domain in the United States. Those works may be freely copied, adapted, or republished. Some works published between 1929 and 1964 may also be in the public domain if their copyrights weren’t renewed or if other formalities weren’t met.

“IRI” in the chart below refers to Intellectual Reserve, Inc., the legal entity that manages copyrights held by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. IRI-copyrighted content can generally be used without permission for incidental, noncommercial Church or home use.
