Present Joys

“We thank the Lord of heaven and earth
who hath preserved us from our birth
for present joys, for blessings past,
and for the hope of heaven at last.”

This is, I think, my favorite live recording of “Old College Try”, an excellent Mountain Goats song from their excellent album Tallahassee. Listen to the bass. Especially at the very end. It’s superb.

I was going to post this video but then I realized I’d already posted it so instead I will just reblog myself. How’s that for ingenuity?
