Writing your song

How the song creator works, step by step

The short answer

Choose the moment, say who the song is for, share their story, pick the sound and check the words. AI then makes two full versions to hear for free, and you keep the one you love for $39.99.

  1. The moment

    Open the song creator and choose “Write it for me”, then what the song is for, such as a prayer, a birthday, a memorial or Mother's Day. From one of our song pages, that moment is already chosen; you can change it.

  2. Who it's for

    Finish the sentence “This song is for…” with their first name and who they are to you: my mom, my pastor, my friend. You can also choose “It's for me”, “From all of us” or “Keep it neutral”.

  3. Their story

    Answer a few questions about them in your own words: a memory, what they mean to you, a prayer you hold for them. You can add a Bible verse for the song to draw on. Rough notes are fine.

  4. The sound

    Choose a style such as Contemporary worship, Gospel choir or Traditional hymn, or “You choose for me”. Then choose who should sing it and the language.

  5. The words

    AI writes the lyrics from your answers. Read every line, check names and details, and change anything you like. No music is made until you're happy with the words.

  6. Two versions to hear

    Choose “Create two free song previews”. If you aren't signed in, you'll be asked to create a free account first; no card is needed. Version I and Version II are sung from your words, with different performances.

  7. Keep the one you love

    Listen to both, then choose “Keep this one” under the version you love. It's $39.99, paid once. If neither feels right, you don't pay anything.
