lyrics

i suddenly woke up.
didn't know where I was.
stared up at the ceiling.
let it steady itself.
began to place myself:
it's the dead of night
on the longest night

i went to the window,
saw nothing but snow
snow
snow
and a few pairs of headlights
moving gentle and slow, like
mothering hands
smoothing the white expanse

i was awake at the moment
the course of things shifted.
i felt everything turning.
i felt everything lifted.
i turned it over and over,
i could not get over —
o blessed assurance,
Jesus is mine!
o blessed assurance,
all will be well,
well,
well.

Harrison Lemke recommends:

Lift/Love
by Dear Other

Wild, slightly funky, slightly proggy indie rock songs that make you feel alive. Harrison Lemke
go to album
Child of My Sorrow
by The Chairman Dances

I'm in awe of the stories Eric tells with such an economy of words here. The magnificent arrangements and weighty vocals, which seem always about to fade into sigh or groan, also help. Harrison Lemke
go to album
Boots Quest DX OST
by Dragon Warrior

I made a video game, and this is the soundtrack by my Casiotone guitar pop / ambient / experimental music project. That's a weird digression but sometimes life is like that. Harrison Lemke

All Delighted People EP
by Sufjan Stevens

supported by 7 fans who also own “Guest Room Song”

It may not be a full-fledged LP, but All Delighted People is probably my favourite of Sufjan's works. Without an overaching album theme to tie the songs together, it felt like Sufjan was free to experiment on each track and give them their own unique sound. And because of that (and Sufjan's talent), every track on there is a standout track. Angkasawan
