Music matters

So I've been missing my family quite a bit lately. Especially now that we're half way through with the Christmas season, and I haven't been able to share much of it with them. :( Aside from talking to them on the phone, music seems to be the one thing that always lifts my spirits. I love Christmas music. I had the pleasure of performing with our ward's choir today. And while we weren't perfect in execution, we did it in the right spirit, and it was great to be a part of. I just wanted to share one of my absolute favorite songs that I've been listening to a lot lately. It's not really a "Christmas" song per se, but I still think of it in those terms. Unfortunately you'll never ever hear it on one of those so-called all Christmas stations that play the same 100 songs over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and......but it needs to be heard, shared and appreciated.

As for the video, take it or leave it, but the song is exactly what it should be. Thank you Sufjan Stevens


Without further ado, I give you 'Come Thou Fount', as performed by Sufjan Stevens:
