  • Enter the song verses one below the other. Standard features of common word processors are available.
  • When a verse is too long to fit on a single slide, split it in half by skipping a line.
  • To specify whether this is a verse or a chorus, type V1, V2, V3 for a verse, or C, or C1, for a chorus.
  • To insert a non-breaking space, press Ctrl+Shift+Space (Windows standard shortcut).
  • A non-breaking space is represented by a red highlighted “_”.
  • A non-breaking space requires VideoPsalm to keep the words on the same line to prevent sentences being cut at the wrong place.

A song verse can be of one of the following types:
  • Verse (V)
  • Chorus (C)
  • Pre-chorus (P)
  • Bridge (B)
  • Tag (T)
  • Intro (I)
  • Outro (O)
  • Slide (S)
  • Instrumental (N)
  • Other (R)

The type of a song verse is only indicative.
Especially, no particular style is used to display any such song verse type.
Modifications are immediately reflected in the slide panel (at the top right) unless the shield is active .

You can also import your existing songs (OpenSong) via the import wizard.
