By Request, ‘Jesus, Lover of My Soul’

The antidote to bad nooze is good news; and there’s no better news than the gospel of Our Lord Jesus Christ.

Requested by Erlene, a Charles Wesley hymn from 1740: Jesus, Lover of My Soul, sung by the Altar of Praise Chorale.

[I couldn’t decide whether another stupid nooze item or another hymn, so I’ve posted both.]

By Request: ‘Jesus, Lover of My Soul’

And we have a hymn request to start the day, this one from SlimJim–Jesus, Lover of My Soul, a classic hymn by Charles Wesley, sung by the Altar of Praise Chorale.

The hymn shop is open; all you’ve got to do is walk right in.

‘Jesus, Lover of My Soul’

It’s said Charles Wesley wrote Jesus, Lover of My Soul while hiding from thugs who meant to attack him: this happened on a visit to Ireland.

Performed the old-fashioned way by Maddy Prior and the Carnival Band.

‘Jesus, Lover of My Soul’

This is from the Hymn Club’s “Redemption Hymnal”–Jesus, Lover of My Soul by Charles Wesley. The youtube page doesn’t say who performs it, but to me it sounds like Maddy Prior and the Carnival Band.

Wesley’s hymns poured out love to Jesus Christ, and taught their hearers, and their singers, even as they were sung.
