Well, we certainly live in the days of possibilities. By now, everyone has hear about Suno and AI music generation. It can have its good and bad points. That is not the point here. What I have discovered is that with a few simple prompts, a song about a chapter in the scriptures can be put to inspiring music. I have done it a couple of times and found a formula for Suno. Here it is. I entered the following into the "create a song" window in Suno:

"A song about Hebrews 11, from the ESV Bible."

This was the result. "By Faith" (Hebrews 11) I was impressed by the results.

One can go further by adding meta tags. Here's an example of what you could do:

A song about Luke 2, from the ESV Bible. [vocals: clear, controlled, and expressive, with a warm tone] [key: A] [tempo: 75 bpm] [mood: devotional, prayerful] [genre: christian contemporary, ccm] [instruments: piano, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, bass and drums]

Based upon my uploaded original songs to Suno, Suno has created a profile of my compositions to make a style. I have also uploaded my voice and Suno can use it in the song. Here is one such song using my writing style and my voice. Psalm 62

Now, I see that inspiring worship can be made for the entire Bible. Anyone want to have fun in a project to put the Bible to music, chapter by chapter?

Nice song, Gary!

I dubs Romans 1:1-2:9a!

I already started creating that in early 2025, but pray.com stole my idea and started the music bible. I confronted the pray.com CEO about it, and he pretended like he didn't know what I was talking about. Then I told him other AI ideas, which were also stolen.

So I stopped trusting all Christians and just continued to do whatever I wanted to do.

So, what passage of Scripture do you want to contribute to this thread?
Seems like something from Revelation might fit EDM.
 
Suno and AI music generation
AI Overview

As of early 2026, there are dozens of popular AI music generators and countless specialized models, with
over 50,000 fully AI-generated songs being uploaded to streaming platforms daily.The current landscape
is dominated by a few major platforms, including Suno AI, Udio, Mureka, Stable Audio, and AIVA.

Which Was First?

The First Recorded Example (1957): The very first computer-generated music was
the "Illiac Suite" for string quartet, created by researchers Lejaren Hiller and Leonard
Isaacson at the University of Illinois using the ILLIAC I computer.

Modern AI Music Era:

While early experiments existed in the 50s, the modern era of prompt-based, high-quality generative
AI music truly began to take shape with tools like Jukedeck (founded 2014) and later accelerated by
Google's Magenta and OpenAI's MuseNet.

Top AI Music Generators in 2026

Suno AI: Currently recognized as a clear leader for creating complete songs with vocals.
Udio: Suno's strongest rival, often preferred for higher-quality, complex productions.
ElevenLabs: Known for excellent sound quality. Mubert: Popular for background and
royalty-free music.AIVA: Specialized in emotional, film-quality orchestral music.

As of 2026, daily AI music uploads are growing exponentially, with some
eports showing up to 50,000 new AI tracks per day by early 2026.

I did not get an alert for this. I have three music generators now, as sometimes with my other two,
I am generating up to and over a hundred versions of one song from different style prompts trying
to get something useable... so I recently signed up to Suno. I am not impressed with their results.

More on what gets uploaded online: AI Overview

Over 500 hours of video are uploaded to YouTube every minute, which translates
to over 720,000 hours of new content every single day. This equates to approximately
20 million individual videos uploaded daily, with some estimates suggesting over
3 million to 3.7 million new videos depending on the classification of short-form content.
This would include all videos and not just music.

Eh, I am not really interested in such a project. Recently I did look up how many verses are in the Bible.
It was some number over thirty thousand, which I thought interesting given how many people are
deceived by the numbers thrown around about how many denominations of Christianity there are.

The "Protestant" Bible typically contains 31,102 verses (23,145 in the Old Testament and
7,957 in the New Testament), based on the King James Version (KJV). This is close to the
number some give for number of denominations. But it makes sense in that weird way
that even outrageous things can, since people cannot even agree on what the opening

words of the Bible mean, and probably every verse thereafter is likewise contested.

Just saying all that because you could do a song from each verse of the Bible LOL.

Well, "From Paul to the Proud" eliminates 41 verses.

So, you used to work for Google?

Re Suno, what do you think about this one?:
