He
was
a
good
singer
and
leader.
He
is

Reports
say

He
composed
several
tunes
in

is
"Hope,
"Williams,"

Words
were
composed
by
Charles
Wesley,
1762,
and
were
often
heard
at
camp
meetings,
in
the
history
of
this
country,
and
it
is
in
most
all
the
hymn
books
of
all
denominations.
The
hymn
in
the
tune
"Hope"
was
also
composed
by
Charles
Wesley,
in
1763,
and
under
the
title
"For
Children."
It
is
based
on
the
148th
Psalm,
12th
and
13th
verse.
