The three subscription levels are Basic (Free), Plus ($44/year), and Premium ($145/year).

The Basic subscription is intended for people who either want to try out Liturgy.com or only plan music for liturgies occasionally. With the Basic tier you will be able to plan for Sundays and solemnities with the full music list in Liturgy.com at your disposal, including popular Mass settings. You will also get three song suggestions for each liturgical moment to help you choose and can print out your Outlines. You are limited to five saved Outlines so if you reach that limit, you will have to delete outlines to plan more. You cannot use a digital library with a Basic account, so you will need to upgrade if you want to purchase a digital library.

The Plus subscription is intended for those who more regularly plan music for liturgies, but don’t need to have multiple users or a complete planning history. Compared to Basic, you get the full set of Today’s Liturgy and Liturgia y Canción recommendations, the ability to email Outlines directly to your choir, and the ability to plan special liturgies like funerals and weddings. You will also be able to listen to the audio of the songs you are planning and see a preview of the sheet music, right in the tool. To make planning quicker, you can also save songs in Playlists and create custom Mass settings. Lastly, you can keep up to 25 outlines at a time.

The Premium subscription is for those who want all the features. It comes with unlimited Outlines so you can save and reference every Outline you have ever made and you can have up to five users on your account. You can also see all the suggestions ever made for each liturgical moment for a huge list to choose from. There is also the option to plan daily Masses on the Premium tier.

Our digital libraries provide easy access to all the accompaniment sheet music and audio recordings your choir needs! We provide a simple interface to browse all the songs, view/download/print the sheet music for guitar or keyboard, and listen to the audio recording. You simply buy it as an add-on to your Liturgy.com subscription. It is priced by how many people you want to have access to it, so you can save money by only purchasing it for the people who need it.

Additionally, when you prepare for a liturgy by populating an outline with songs from your digital library, you can quickly and easily download all the sheet music for that celebration. Choose your instrumentation and whether you want it all in one PDF or separate PDFs and you are good to go!

The best part is you can also share your outline with your choir where they can download the sheet music themselves making it super simple to get everyone playing from the same sheet of music.

Simply call in to 1-800-LITURGY (548-8749) to place an order with our excellent Customer Success team! They are available 7:00 am – 4:30 pm PT, Monday – Friday. We sell ‘seats’ to the digital library, so you can save money by only purchasing it for the people in your organization who need it.

With a Basic subscription you are limited to five saved Outlines and with a Plus subscription you have 25. Once you reach those limits you will have to delete saved Outlines to be able to continue to create new Outlines. You will get notifications when you are nearing your limit and when you have reached your limit.

The Premium subscription has unlimited saved Outlines.

Under Special Liturgies, we include templates for the following celebrations:

• Weddings
• Baptisms
• Anointing of the Sick
• Confirmation
• Reconciliation
• Funerals
• Quinceañeras
• Adoration

On Premium you can also plan for any and all of the daily Masses on the U.S. liturgical calendar, including memorials and optional memorials.

Liturgy.com has a feature where you can manage the personnel in your choir with their emails and assign them to an Outline. When your Outline is complete, you can email the Outline to your personnel directly from Liturgy.com.

If you have a digital library, your choir members can click on the link in the email to access a page that will let them download the sheet music for any songs in the digital library for that outline.

Under My Resources, you can select which resources your community uses or has access to. Once you have selected these, a small badge will appear on every song that appears in your resources, so you quickly know which songs you have access to. Additionally, once you add these songs to an Outline, the song numbers in your resources will populate automatically.

Liturgy.com has the full suite of OCP missals and hymnals as well as many of the most popular non-OCP missals and hymnals.

The Basic subscription gets a sample of our suggestions consisting of the top 3 suggestions for each liturgical moment from Today’s Liturgy and Liturgia y Canción as well as songs that reference the scripture readings in that liturgy. Plus users will have the full set of suggestions from these resources. Meanwhile, Premium users get an expanded list of suggestions consisting of the full history of these resources as well as songs that are trending across Liturgy.com users.

Premium and Plus users can access the archives of all the Today’s Liturgy and Liturgia y Canción articles. Additionally, Premium and Plus users can download the PDF for the annual planning resource on the Additional Resources page.

Plus and Premium users can create custom Mass settings and templates that can be used to quickly populate an Outline with commonly used arrangements of songs. Additionally, these users can adjust which liturgical moments show up by default (e.g. Preludes or 2nd Communion song), the default list in the Song Suggestion pane, and which information shows up on the printed Outline.

The Song Suggestions and OCP Staff Picks are selected from songs that are in OCP products. However, many of these songs can also be found in non-OCP products. If you select these products in My Resources, they will be identified in the Song Suggestion pane just like an OCP product.

On the My Subscription page, you can quickly and easily upgrade your account. If you are upgrading from a Basic subscription, you simply click the "Upgrade" button, add a payment method, click to edit your subscription, and choose a higher tier.

If you are currently on Plus, you can select the "Modify Subscription" link to upgrade to Premium. Then choose to edit your subscription, change it to Premium, and check out. If you are partially through your Plus subscription, you will pay a pro-rated amount to access Premium features for the remainder of your subscription. 

If you decide you no longer want to pay for a subscription, simply navigate to the Manage My Subscription page and click "Cancel Subscription". At the end of your subscription period, your account will be changed to a Basic account, which is free.

If you would like to change from Premium to Plus, simply click the "Modify Subscription" link and choose to edit your subscription. It will transition you to Plus at the end of your subscription period.

If you downgrade your subscription, you it will lower the number of Outlines you can have, and you may lose access to your content in certain features like Playlists, custom songs, etc. Don’t fret! We have archived all of these items so, if you decide to upgrade again, they will be restored and there waiting for you.

However, if you delete Outlines to make room to create more Outlines, those will be deleted forever and cannot be retrieved.

We recommend visiting https://www.ocp.org/en-us/reprint-permissions for an explainer on licensing, because it can be complicated. Generally, if you are playing the music at your parish for liturgies or other events, you do not need any additional licensing. However, if you want to project or livestream or print (e.g. handouts) the music, you will still need to have licensing in place.

You may share what you download with members of your choir, parish, or school. We ask that you practice prudence and not share broadly on the internet. The intent of the digital library is to provide accompaniment pieces to your organization, and your organization only.

You will have to make the following selections when clicking “Share Music File” on an outline:

• First, if you have another digital library on ICRMusic.org, you will have to select which libraries you intend to use.
• Select which songs to include. All available songs are selected by default.
• Choose file type. Options are PDF (for sheet music) or MP3 (for recordings)
• Choose instrumentation (only for PDF). Choose which arrangement you would like for the sheet music.
• Choose whether you want all the sheet music to be combined into a single PDF, in the order specified in your Outline; or as a zip file of individual PDFs for each song

When you purchase a digital library it will be automatically selected as one of your resources. This means there will be a badge next to every song in that resource so you can quickly identify it.

All of our digital libraries support one of our physical products. Please visit the product pages on www.ocp.org to learn more about the song selections in those products.

Yes. You can find songs from a select number of third-party hymnals and songbooks through the search feature; these songs can be added to any celebration Outline from “Resources” in the dropdown menu under your name in the left navigation pane.

To see which third party resources are available, click here.

Yes, up to five users can be associated with one Premium account. Basic and Plus accounts are limited to one user.

If you have a Breaking Bread or Spirit & Song Digital Music Library subscription with multiple users, all of them will automatically have access to Liturgy.com with a Premium subscription. Digital library subscriptions should manage their users on ICRmusic.org.

Note: all users on an account will be able to view all the activity of any other user on the account.

There are three (3) user roles: Standard, Admin, and Owner. For Premium accounts, these are assigned. Since Basic and Plus have one user, they are always assigned the Owner role.

Standard users can access ALL the functionality of Liturgy.com, but are not able to make purchases or manage other users. Admins have the ability to add/remove users and change their roles (with the exception of the Owner). They cannot make purchase decisions for the organization, such as enabling/disabling auto renew, upgrades, changing payment methods, etc. Those abilities are restricted to the Owner. The Owner has all the permissions of the Admin, plus the ability to make all these purchase decisions. There can be multiple Admins, but there can only be one Owner.

Your initial login will be the email address and password associated with your ocp.org account. If you don’t have an existing ocp.org account, one will be created for you when you set up your account. Your login and password for both Liturgy.com and ocp.org will be identical.

To change your password or email, click on your name in the left navigation pane to activate the drop-down menu and select "Account Details.” On the left side of your screen under “Account Details,” select “Login & Security.”

Your subscription will renew automatically at the end of your subscription term if you have a valid payment method on file. Super easy! We will give you a heads up a few days before that happens via email.

If you do not have a payment method on file, you will need to go add one so that we can charge you and keep your Liturgy.com account active. If you forget, no worries! You will be downgraded to Basic, but you can simply upgrade again at a later date and reactivate your account and all its content.

Please contact OCP Customer Success at 1-800-548-8749.
