Do you have songs to share? Great! Read our guidelines below!

To All Music Artists:                                      CONTACT US: admin@wordforlife.com

           First of all, thank you for coming to this page and reading about adding your music to our site. We would be happy to add your music if it meets our very few required criteria for inclusion:

     1 - It must glorify God in some way, as nearly all music does. If it is a vocal or mixed track, all vocals should be uplifting. If it is an instrumental track, then this is not an issue. 

     2 - You do not have to be a large group. A single person or a group of friends singing/playing their OWN works is just fine. Some of our current artists are "singles" that do not belong to an organized group. 

     3 - For legal reasons, we can only accept music submissions from the person who holds the copyright on the work, not from the public. We will ask for a signed release from anyone we don't know personally affirming that we have legal permission to place the music here. This is also intended to make sure that all artists are aware of their musical "presence" here and approve of it. Under U.S. Copyright Law, the person who creates a song is considered the copyright holder unless they are hired to do it, in which case the copyright defaults to their employer. For information on U.S. Copyright law, we suggest you visit this link to the U.S. Copyright Office Copyright Tutorial which is an extensive but easy to read tutorial on the subject.

In Return for Your Music Submissions:

     1 - We will feature the last- received artists at the top of our music list until the next one comes along. If a long period of time between submissions elapses, we'll take the bottom one and move it to the top and so on. 

     2 - If you have a website, we will encourage OUR visitors to come to your site with a prominent hyperlink on every song's description line. If you don't have a website and would like an email link, just let us know. If you need a website page or two for your music, we may be able to provide a free one for you on our site - just ask. Or, we may be able to help you get one set up on your own site somewhere. 

If you can think of any questions we have not addressed here, please write and we'll normally respond within 24-48 hours. Our email address is : admin@wordforlife.com. The terms by which we distribute music are shown in the box below. Thank you!

 

*About the honor system of sharing Christian MP3 Music Files: 
Remember, the Christian artists that each gave us permission to place their music on this website did so on an "honor system." They're trusting you to download the music, share it, give it to others, but not to charge for doing so. So much as it is possible for you, please give away the music without any charge of any kind. However, if you cannot afford the cost of a blank CD, DVD, or whatever media you use to distribute the songs, then there is nothing at all wrong with asking the receiving person to compensate you for the actual cost of the media used to provide the songs to them. In other words, if it cost you a dollar to prepare the copy for them, then a dollar is all you may charge in return, not 2 or 3 dollars to make up for you "time working on it." Let the value of that bit of time be a gift to God and a "Thanks!" to the artist who freely gave of their works.
