The United Methodist Church is currently celebrating
the Season of Advent.

During this season, we prepare for the celebration of Jesus' birth.

The song you are listening to is
"Hark! the Herald Angels Sing",
a Charles Wesley text set to a tune by Felix Mendelssohn.
This great hymn is number 240 in The United Methodist Hymnal.

Much of the theology of
The United Methodist Church
can be found in the hymns we sing.

Take a look at some of the songs in
The United Methodist Hymnal...
you'll be glad you did!
