May I use the video and soundtrack as published in an online Methodist Circuit service recorded for youtube please? Thank you

[@ChetValleyChurches]

We are always very happy when people use any of our hymn and song videos in worship. However we don't usually have the copyright in the actual performances themselves so a CCLI or similar would be good to have.

[@rowbarton]

@@ChetValleyChurches Understood - thank you. We have the relevant licenses, and will attribute the sources.

Ian, we are always very happy when people use any of our hymn and song videos in worship. However we don't usually have the copyright in the actual performances themselves so a CCLI or similar would be good to have.
