Happy Birthday!

Singer/songwriter (and some other stuff),

Charles Wesley

born 12/18/1707
(d1788)


          And let this feeble body fail,
          And let it faint or die;
          My soul shall quit this mournful vale,
          And soar to worlds on high,
  
          Chorus: And I'll sing hallelujah,
                  And you'll sing hallelujah,
                  And we'll all sing hallelujah,
                  When we arrive at home.
  
                          "Hallelujah," Tune: William Walker 1835; Lyrics: Charles Wesley 1759
