If your use is not covered by an exception or defense in the law (that is, if your use would not be defensible under fair use, for example), simply ask the rightsholder for permission. Such requests are typically handled in writing (many large rightsholders and administrators have simple webforms for submitting requests) and are very specific; additional uses (at a different time, or of a different type) are likely to require additional negotiation.

Do you need copyright to make a mix CD of Christian songs if your church is using them to give to kids at church?

No you shouldn't copyright anything that is illegal-(from Bella2009)What the person was asking was: do you need a COPYRIGHT(persmission) to MAKE a CD. You obviously don't speak very good English and shouldn't even have an account on here. To copyright something anyway, is to legally claim it as yours. The answer is yes, I would get permission from the artist who made it first.-XjesstenX
