Religion & Spirituality:Christianity
Charles Wesley, an English Methodist leader in the 1700s, wrote more than 6,000 hymns – more than any other male writer.
His goal was to teach the poor and illiterate sound doctrine. God used the writing talents of Charles Wesley to bring the Good News to people in a memorable way; even those who couldn’t read, could hear and understand a beautiful song, and even sing along.
Think about the songs you hear on the radio or online during the month of December. So many of the songs Americans enjoy listening to and singing aloud this time of year are praise-filled anthems celebrating our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ — and they may not even know it!
Hark! the herald angels sing
Glory to the new-born King!
Peace on earth and mercy mild
God and sinners reconciled!
Joyful, all ye nations, rise
Join the triumph of the skies
With the angelic host proclaim
Christ is born in Bethlehem!
Hark! the herald angels sing
Glory to the new-born King!
Let’s pray.
Heavenly Father, we give you the glory for reconciling our sin through the birth, death on the cross, and resurrection of your son, Jesus. May our hearts join together in peace as we sing and shout with joy over the gift of your son. Amen.
