Double Oak Press

For generations, mountain churches have gathered in modest sanctuaries, lifting their voices together in songs learned by heart and handed down through the years. Our aim is to provide a southern gospel hymnal that reflects the plain faith and deep-rooted singing tradition of the Southern Appalachians. Made for regular Sunday meetings, homecomings, and revival services, this book stands as a trusted church choir hymn book for congregations where worship is sincere and voices are raised together as one. 

The "Songs of Faith" southern gospel hymnal from Double Oak Press is a well-known shape-note gospel music collection. Its clear shape-note notation helps singers find their parts and stay together, whether there's a full choir in the loft or just a few faithful folks singing from the pews. This time-honored system carries on the way gospel music has been taught and sung in mountain churches for generations. 

Within these pages is a strong gathering of gospel choir songs that speak plainly of salvation, grace, and hope beyond this world. Filled with old favorites and trusted standards, this southern gospel hymnal is built to serve small Appalachian churches year after year, supporting worship that is humble, heartfelt, and rooted in the old paths.
