CHARLES WESLEY (1707-1788) was the 18th child and youngest son of Samuel and Susanna Wesley. He was educated at Westminster School and Christ Church College, Oxford. He is referred to as one of the "first Methodists" since he and his brother John, along with George Whitefield, formed the "Holy Club" at Oxford. The club was based on a disciplined approach to Bible study, worship, communion, and concern for the less fortunate. Wesley was ordained in the Church of England in 1735 and a year later accompanied his brother John to America as a missionary to the colony in Georgia. He returned to London in 1738 and met the Moravian leaders, William Law, Count Zinzendorf, and Peter Böhler, under whose influence he experienced his spiritual conversion.

With his brother John, Charles traveled throughout the British Isles doing evangelistic work which led to the Great Awakening and notable spiritual, economic and political changes. At his death, John wrote, "He had no disease, but after a gradual decay of some months, 'the weary wheels of life stood still at last.'" Charles was a prolific poet who wrote more than 6500 hymns covering the entire span of Christian experience and theology. He also published sixty-four collections of hymns, listed in Julian's Dictionary of Hymnology, pp. 1259-60. "And Can It Be," "Come, Thou Long-Expected Jesus," "Hark! the Herald Angels Sing," and "O For a Thousand Tongues to Sing" are but a few of his well-remembered texts.
