With trumpets and the sound of the horn make a joyful noise before the Lord! Let the sea roar, and all that fills it, the world and those who dwell in it!

His hymns witness to the power of God in Christ today and in every age. He and his brother John Wesley founded Methodism. To be clear, Charles Wesley wrote the words only. The texts are coupled with tunes as is customary for the time. The UMC Hymnal includes 40 hymns of his. Hark! the Herald Angels Sing, Christ the Lord is Risen Today, And Are We Yet Alive, and Love Divine, All Loves Excelling to name a few familiar hymns. Want to support Asbury's music ministries financially? You're invited to give to the Friends of Asbury Music Fund.
