Learning Language by Musical Melody
                        I very much would like to learn Greek and believe 
combining music with my language study would be very helpful.  This musical 
method would be true for learning any new language.  The melody of a song in itself 
speaks the words of a song and thus if one is greatly familiar with a song he 
very much can know the words through the melody alone.  Now if I could listen 
to songs that I naturally know the words by the melody, and which instead of 
giving the English words would give the Greek words which corresponds with the 
melody, I believe such would be very helpful in teaching me the words of that 
language.

I'm not sure this is what you're looking for since they are not likely to be 
familiar lyrics.  In fact, since my sound card needs to be replaced, I'm not 
even sure they're in Greek, but you can give it a try (apparently they're not 
just prayers but hymns as well).
