Good question. To err on the safe side, record your own version of gospel standards, traditional songs and classic hymns. There's plenty of them. Better still, find an old tune that's nice and out of copyright, and put new words to it. For some authoritative assistance on the perils of getting it wrong, may I point you in the direction of 'A Song For Europe', an episode of the 'Father Ted' TV series, available on DVD? You will find it most enlightening.

I have noticed there are some well known songs that have been uploaded, but not by the author of the songs. Is it OK to record your own version of a well known song and then upload it on worship journal ? I thought you could only upload your own compositions to share. Liz.
