Is there a way to transfer song I wrote in the Notes app into my OnSong library?

While there isn't a way to select multiple notes in the Notes app for export, you can use the "Add to OnSong" extension to essentially "queue" songs to be imported into OnSong from the Notes app.

To do this, tap on a note in the Notes app to view it. Then, tap on the "share" icon that looks like a square with an up arrow.  If you are on iOS/iPadOS 13, scroll down and tap on the "Edit Actions..." link at the bottom.  If you are running iOS 12 and earlier, tap on the "More..." button in the row of grayscale icons.  Ensure that the Add To OnSong extension is enabled.

Next, locate the Add To OnSong extension in the list of actions and tap.  Repeat as necessary.  The next time you open the OnSong app, you will be prompted to import those queued files.  Accept and the files are each imported as songs in your OnSong library.
