Nearly every church that uses ProPresenter 7 needs to add songs to the library. Some may not add sermons or announcements or even videos, but adding song lyrics is one of the most basic things you can do.
With that said, there are three ways to do it.
You can add them from SongSelect by CCLI, import from the clipboard (after you've copied the words), or import them from a file. Once you select the method you prefer, there are a few settings that, if you get them right, will save you a ton of time.
Watch the video above to learn how to add songs and select the right settings for you.

Thank you. New to ProPresenter and learning (on my own) for my Chuch. Your statement at the end; “to go out and change Eternity”. Yes, I want someone’s Eternity destination changed! All Glory to God!
Glad it was helpful!
I'm learning this for my church and I am thankful for your knowledge. I love the program and all that it can do. We are small but mighty and growing all the time. This helps a ton.
Glad to help.
I just found this from you. It was very helpful. I know you have had it up a long time. But as I am part time, I am always learning something about ProP7! This will save me time for sure.Thanks again.
Great video. Thanks man. Keep creating propresenter tutorials 👏👏👏
Thank you for sharing!
No worries! Glad to help.
Bolshoe spasibo! Thanks for this video. many lyrics didn't included in CCLI like songs that we singing in other countries
Glad to help.
Excellent help for a beginners
Need help. When I access songselect from my propresenter 7 to add a new song I get this message, "The operation couldn't be completed. (OAuthSwiftError error-11.) How do I fix this.
Try logging out and back in. Make sure the computer’s clock is set my a network server automatically, and if that doesn’t work, reach out to support@renewedvision.com.
Pro Presenter is so much harder than MediaShout. I tried a couple of Pro Presenter How To video and have yet to get a properly formatted song INTO this. IS THERE A SIMPLE video to show this. I'm willing to type mine in by hand if this is the only way.
Hi I have a question, How do you import the file on a windows computer?
Same way. File>Import> File…
Hey, great video but I have a question: When searching for a new song, what happens when the second button isn't there that allows you to find a song that isn't already in your personal library?
Go to ProPresenter>Preferences and check "Show House of Worship integrations". It will show back up. Note: this isn't a database of all songs, just church ones.
Thanks for the video Paul. Hey I have a question - if you import from CCLI using paragraph breaks instead of line breaks, does PP7 automatically assign the Groups (eg, verse 1, chorus, etc)?
Also, I find it easier to use the CCLI song number rather than the song title to import a song from CCLI. Our church uses Planning Centre Online, so the song number is already listed and all I have to do is copy and paste the number, and I know I have the correct version of the song. (And no, we don’t use automatic playlists).
Thanks again. 😊
I need to do more testing with CCLI to know for sure. I'll try and remember to reply back when I do.
can you edit a song or put it in manelly
Yep. It's not the fastest and easiest way to do it, but you can. I was trying to show the fastest/easiest way. :)
Can you recommend a video that show me one SIMPLE way to add a song. I NEED to understand Pro Presenter a little MORE before you show me the multiple ways. This multiple way is confusing.
File>import >file and bring in a text document and it will come in.
@@PaulClifford I found a VID of a church setup. Very straight forward. I realize PP is VERY powerful but for some reason no one want to show the basics.
