Gungor

Via John Mark McMillian sin blogg (en mann som også lager deilig lovsang, blant annet "How He loves us") fant jeg Gungor. Hør dem på Myspace. De sier de spiller liturgisk postrock og at de er en blanding av litt Sigur Ros, Muse, Sufjan Stevens og masse annet. Tekstene er underfundige og flotte. Musikken er chill. Absolutt verdt å sjekke ut!

En artig sang er "White Man" hvor begynnelsen av sangen går sånn her "God is not a man, God is not a white man, God is not a man sitting on a cloud, God cannot be bought, God will not be boxed in, God will not be owned by religion". Amen til det.

Beautiful Things er en flott lovsang om det vakre og vanskelige livet:

All this pain
I wonder if I’ll ever find my way
I wonder if my life could really change at all
All this earth
Could all that is lost ever be found
Could a garden come up from this ground at all

You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of the dust
You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of us

All around
Hope is springing up from this old ground
Out of chaos life is being found in You

You make me new, You are making me new
