Last March we released the first batch of Songs from The New City Catechism, which covered Questions 1–15, followed by Questions 16–31 in summer 2017. As I wrote then,
When The Gospel Coalition, Redeemer Presbyterian Church, and Crossway decided to bring The New City Catechism (NCC) to print, we knew we wanted to commission brand-new songs that followed the exact wording of The New City Catechism children’s questions and answers. What might take weeks to learn through repetition could take minutes to memorize when set to the right tune.
That has indeed been the case as both children and adults have responded enthusiastically to learning the catechism through song.
Today, we are pleased to release a third set of songs covering Questions 32–41, set to music by Frank Hernandez and arranged by Fletch Wiley. There are several ways you can stream and download:
- Play the songs through the NCC apps (iTunes | Google Play)
- Stream Songs from The New City Catechism 3 album on this page or on Bandcamp (works best for iPhone)
- Download the entire album from Bandcamp (must be downloaded on a computer then imported into iTunes before you can listen on an iPhone, though Android supports direct downloads)
- Play the songs on NewCityCatechism.com (be sure the site is set to children’s mode to play the songs) or on this site (below)
- Play lyric videos on Youtube
- Download lead sheets for worship
Coming Soon:
- Songs for Questions 41–52 (available in summer 2018)
- The New City Catechism Curriculum (ages 8 to 11, available summer 2018)

We need one another. Yet we don’t always know how to develop deep relationships to help us grow in the Christian life. Younger believers benefit from the guidance and wisdom of more mature saints as their faith deepens. But too often, potential mentors lack clarity and training on how to engage in discipling those they can influence.
Whether you’re longing to find a spiritual mentor or hoping to serve as a guide for someone else, we have a FREE resource to encourage and equip you. In Growing Together: Taking Mentoring Beyond Small Talk and Prayer Requests, Melissa Kruger, TGC’s vice president of discipleship programming, offers encouraging lessons to guide conversations that promote spiritual growth in both the mentee and mentor.
