I love the hymns of Charles Wesley.
A few of my favorites include:
* And Can It Be That I Should Gain
* Christ the Lord is Risen Today
* Come, Thou Almighty King
* Come, Thou Long Expected Jesus
* Jesus, Lover of my Soul

Hi Elisabeth! Thanks for stopping by! That's very interesting how you found my blog. Well, God bless you and have a great night. Janet.
Yesterday we sang "Arise, My Soul, Arise." It's wonderful. I love Wesley's hymns too. Usually a phrase sticks with me for several days after singing one. There is such wealth and such depth in his words.
Of the hymns you listed I think Jesus, Lover of My Soul is my fave.
Janet, I loved the picture of your uncle. To have that connection to your father is precious. What a lovely surprise!
I love them all and long for the chance to sing them with a church.
I miss, miss, miss singing the old hymns.
We went to a wonderful little Methodist church for three or so years and we sang many wesley hymns there :o)
Charles Wesley was quite a prolific and sustaining writer! We still sing these in church! We are getting ready to go from our green hymnal back to the red hymnal we grew up with!
