Of his huge output of songs, Weatherly listed a selection of 61 titles in his Who's Who entry. His ballad "Roses of Picardy", written in 1916 and set to music by Haydn Wood, was one of the most famous songs from World War I. He published the now-famous song in 1913. The tune matched his lyrics almost perfectly. In 1912 his sister-in-law in America sent him an old Irish tune called "Londonderry Air", which he had never heard before. He wrote the song "Danny Boy" in 1910, but it did not meet with much success. The song includes the refrain "Jerusalem, Jerusalem!". The first of Weatherly's well-known works was the hymn "The Holy City", written in 1892 to music by the British composer Stephen Adams.
