The Stream Ever Flowing Paul Mcdowell

Charles Wesley and his brother John set the country alight with their desire to let everyone know that the invitation of the God of love is open to all. Charles's passionate and powerful words still speak to us today, a reason why Wesley hymns continue to be used in the 21st century. "The Stream Ever Flowing" is a collection of Charles Wesley's lesser-known hymns - 100 that are not included in the current Methodist hymn book Hymns and Psalms. Although Charles was born 300 years ago, his creative stream of 9,000 poems has left an influence that still flows on. Some of the hymns will be found in previous, or non-British editions, of Methodist hymn books; some will be found in none. All of them are set to music so that you can, in the words of John Wesley, "sing lustily and with a good courage".
