Darn, just about to suggest that!
There are certain hymns that don't need permission, I'll post a link on your wall. At the end of the lyrics it will state if you need permission or not! Hope it helps hun! xx
WARNING:
I say the first thing I think of!

No probs hun, you may have to change some hymns but I don't think you should have to pay for something that would normally be in their hymn book! xx
ive printed hymns in our OOS our minister explained about the copyright, if the composer died so many years ago they dont have to pay, we have 1 song where the composer is still alive, but the minister said something that the church sort the copyright out. as long as we have written the composers details at the end of the words. also, i copied and pasted the words from 1 hymn and had to change them as there were 2/3 words that differed from the words used in church, so the minister asked me to change them. i would ask the vicar again to explain it properly to you. i know that all churches differ. i will put a link on your wall to of the site i got my hymns from :) x
21st October 2011 will be the best day of my life!!!
