Good Friday music

 This is good (It's an hour long)

Amazing what you can buy on Amazon (2)

A while back, I commented on the confirmation email I got for my "Amazon.co.uk order of Eternal Life"

Now I've got a confirmation email for my "Amazon.co.uk order of Sparrows"

Quote

(Context: sole surviving spaceship crewman listening to Bach to drown out the silence.)

And so Discovery drove on towards Saturn, as often as not ringing with the cool music of the harpsichord, the frozen thoughts of a brain that had been dust for twice a hundred years.

Arthur C Clarke, 2001 A Space Odyssey*

*Which so far is hardly the most enthralling book I have ever read. But I like this quote.

Amazing what you can buy on Amazon these days

I recieved an email with the subject line:

Amazon.co.uk order of Eternal Life (John 3:16)

:-)

Wake me up (Amnesia)

"Won't you wake me up when my faith is asleep?
You never let me go;
bring back my memory.
You bring these bones to life* when you breathe into me.
Remind me how much I need you 
when I get amnesia"

---

*At least, I think that's what it says - all the lyrics I've found online say 'fools to love' which makes much less sense!

Edit: I did think it was 'coals', but 'bones' makes even more sense. (Ezekiel 37)

Greatest Day in History

The greatest day in history,
Death is beaten, You have rescued me
Sing it out, Jesus is alive
The empty cross, the empty grave
Life eternal, You have won the day
Shout it out, Jesus is alive
He's alive!

Oh happy day, happy day
You washed my sin away
Oh happy day, happy day
I'll never be the same
Forever I am changed

Tim Hughes

My Lighthouse

I've been hearing this around lately. It's so cheerful (and true). 

Edit - I have now managed to embed the player - the problem was my inability to read... :-)

Ancient Hebrew music

This lady thinks she has decoded the ancient hebrew music for the Psalms etc. Whether or not she's right, this is beautiful:

You could fit the English words to it as well, if you wanted.

It's a nice soundtrack to my work, although ironically I am drawing the musicians from Daniel 3!
