I just listened to Mahalia Jackson singing "Precious lord, take my hand" and I cried like a blubbering baby

Part of it is the transcendant beauty of her voice , but I know there is something else at work.


FYI I am an athiest


What say ye?

3. Mahalia Jackson always did it for me.
So do many of the gorgeous masses written for Rome that Rome spurns in favor of those boring Gregorian chants.

4. Bluegrass
There's a program called Stained Glass Bluegrass on one of my NPR stations (on HD radio or online now) that I love. If it's got banjo and fiddle I can deal with the Jesus stuff.

I got a free CD called Glory Land when I donated once that has a beautiful a cappella version of a song called Some Day that basically is a 'don't be sad when I die because I'll be in heaven and I hope my loved ones behave so they will meet me there' song. I absolutely love the harmony in that song so I love to listen to it.

That reminds me of my favorite Onion article:
