Jehovah's Witnesses publications for adherents

Jehovah's Witnesses produce most of their publication titles for use in their field ministry, to aid in their evangelism efforts. By contrast, Jehovah's Witnesses publications for adherents are not intended for use in the ministry or by those with a merely casual interest in the faith.

Some publications, such as song books, The Watchtower Study Edition, and Our Kingdom Ministry newsletters, are for use by those who attend congregation meetings. Others, such as Watchtower Library - On CDROM and Organized to Accomplish Jehovah's Will, are typically reserved for baptized Witnesses. Certain textbook publications are limited to those holding the relevant appointed positions, such as congregation elders and regular pioneer ministers (students of occasionally-scheduled "Kingdom Ministry School" and "Pioneer Service School", respectively).

=Sing Praises to Jehovah=

This is the hymnal used by Jehovah's Witnesses, comprised of the current Kingdom songs. It was released in English in 1984 and includes 225 songs. It was subsequently introduced in many other languages. Several new songs were introduced in this book.

Many songs in the current book were present in the previous two books, with minor changes made to many songs, as well as some more significant changes in a few. Various textual revisions took place. Two songs had the melodies changed. In addition, a few more songs were dropped from the previous book which had been found not to have been written by members of Jehovah's Witnesses. Several dozen new songs appeared for the first time in this book.

The musical arrangements have become progressively more elaborate and complex, and some of them are for the first time in pianistic arrangements, instead of the traditional four-part choral style used in the previous two song-books, similarly to most standard hymn-books.

Music and themes
The 225 songs relate to various aspects of the beliefs of Jehovah's Witnesses. Each song title is based on a cited scripture.

As with other publications of Jehovah's Witnesses, the names of the lyricists and composers do not appear in the book. The original material, both words and music, is published anonymously, though, at times, their literature has revealed the circumstances and authorship of a song.

In technical aspects like harmony, rhythm, and tonality, the songs are very innovative by the usual standards of songs or hymns intended for congregational use. Quite complex harmonies drawn from the late-romantic period of music are sometimes used; some of the songs modulate to more distant keys than one would normally expect in songs of this type; a few songs have their verses and refrain in different, unrelated keys (for example, an E-flat-major verse coupled with a C-major refrain); one of the songs is in quintuple rhythm (5/4 metre); a few songs have their verses and refrain in different metres or tempos (for example C followed by 3/4; 9/8 followed by 3/4). This adventurousness in musical technique is greatly expanded yet further in the Kingdom Melodies orchestrated versions, which are not always in the same keys as the corresponding original songs.
