Searching Songs

ChurchTrac gives you the ability to search your entire song library by song name, lyric, Tag, and Composer/Artist. You can even limit your search to a particular key if needed as well!

Searching worship songs in ChurchTrac

When you want to search your entire song library, make sure that you are searching "all songs" as opposed to only a single Collection.

"Starred" Songs

Need a quick way to mark certain songs as your favorites? Select the star icon next to the song title and that song will automatically be added to your starred songs. At any time you can "unstar" a song by selecting the star icon again.

Song Collections

Song Collections let you organize your songs in a way that helps you find the songs you need quickly and easily;We find that many worship leaders make Collections for special seasons like Christmas or Easter.  You can create Song Collections for anything really--your favorite songs, Easter songs, Christmas songs, and so on.

Should I use a Collection or a Song Tag?
Collections and Song Tags both allow you to quickly filter your Song Library, showing only the relevant or matching songs. For example, you can create a collection named "Christmas Songs" or you can tag each song with the word "Christmas" and use the search box to locate all the matching songs. It's really up to you and what works best for you organization system!

To create a Song Collection, select the "Add" button located under collections.

Worship Music Song Collection

Once you have a collection created, you can add songs to it by selecting the "Edit" button located under your collections.

Song Reports

You can generate song use reports by clicking the button next to the "Add Song" button at the top-right corner of the screen. These reports are often used for CCLI song reporting or just determining what songs you could be overusing or not playing enough.

Worship Music Song Collection

You can customize the date range, then choose to sort the report by the number of times the song was used or by song title.

Worship Music Song Collection

These reports help you identify how many times you have used them within the selected date range and when you last used that song.
