This morning I ran! I listened to peppy New Pornographers and was charmed. Then I listened to this song for the first time. Maybe not listened to, but heard at least.
These are the lyrics. Which are amazing:
Even before we call on Your name
To ask You, O God,
When we seek for the words to glorify you,
You hear our prayer;
Unceasing love, O unceasing love,
Surpassing all we know.Glory to the Father,
And to the Son,
And to the Holy Spirit.Even with darkness sealing us in,
We breathe Your name,
And through all the days that follow so fast,
We trust in You;
Endless Your grace, O endless Your grace,
Beyond all mortal dream.Both now and for ever,
And unto ages and ages,
Amen.–Michael Dennis Browne
Say/think what you will about the Mormon Tabernacle choir. Go ahead. I love this song and I didn't find a better recording. On YouTube.
Then I ate fried tomatoes and eggs and toast. Which, yes, made me feel a little like a hobbit.
Then I walked to school and I felt the sun like a hand on my face. It was so beautiful.
(And now I'm on my way home from campus to hang out with my sister and bro-in-law. Happy Friday!)

I love the Tabernacle Choir.
This should not surprise you, of course, given my open admission of lack of musical sophisticatedness (though, perhaps liking the Choir is one of my better choices -- especially with Mack Wilberg as the choir director). :)
hmm, I haven't listened to the new pornographers in a long time. I'll have to go do that. and mo tab of course.
The youtube link is kaput, but I want to hear that song. Arrgh.
