i want to die rejoicing.

prayer of death- entrance

I want to die without no fear
I want to die rejoicing
I want to meet my brother there
And hear his glorious voice sing
Could not bear it to be left alone
In this world so full of sorrow
So if you leave this world today
I'll follow you tomorrow
I want to be prepared to die
In any kind of weather
I want for you to be ready too
We'll fly away together
If you think your life will have no end
Your foolish days are numbered
Go and waste your time trying to pretend
Still you're bound for eternal slumber
And the wicked men who rule this land
With all their wealth and power
Are bound to die like you and I
And none can tell the hour
I want to live in freedom now
I will not wait for Heaven
I want to sing til Babylon falls
And we all will be forgiven
I want die without no fear
How I want to die rejoicing
How I want to meet my brother there
And hear his glorious voice sing

prayer of death- entrance (mp3)

Hi, I'm Jennifer. I saved this post as a draft a year and a half ago, but no one's enjoying it in my Blogger dashboard. So here goes... my first post for AWEWWE. Enjoy.

palimpsest.

"i left her sitting under a tree gazing up through dappled sunlight to observe the clouds parade across the sky. she said she would never leave that spot.  i placed a ball of gossamer thread in her lap and tied one end around my tongue.  i turned my back to her and with my first step she slipped away from memory. but... today blood poured from my mouth, and when i looked down i saw the faded dusty string with bits of my flesh dragging in the dirt.  i remembered the girl i had abandoned and began to follow the thread, shaking through all the lazy days and ugly ways that had come to pass between us. she was glowing when i found her.  i sat down next to her and she kissed my bloody mouth. together we buried that old cord under the tree.  i settled into her spot as she stood up to eye the horizon's far margin.  i saw the wanderlust grow in her eyes, and begged her to stay as she began to pull away."

my wife wrote this forevs back on her old blog, moments of grace...

it seems to fit eerily well with this vid and song.

it's impossible to overstate the amazing, that is the understated, that is grouper.

We've selected a few of our favorites but it was pretty difficult to narrow it down. We highly recommend watching every single one on her website or youtube account.
