AllMusic[1]

A collection of newly recorded spiritual music ("O Lord of Light", "O Sacred Head Surrounded", "Beautiful Saviour"), folk songs ("500 Miles"), ballads ("Fare Thee Well"), and original songs ("No Storms Come", "Christ Is My Hope", "Morning Star"), the record was released independently by the group's own label, LAMP, with all proceeds donated to hunger relief charities.

The lyrics to "No Storms Come" are adapted from the poem "Heaven-Haven (A Nun Takes the Veil)" by 19th-century English poet Gerard Manley Hopkins. It was re-released on their album Befriended (2003).

gollark: Oh, and you have to include libosmarksßspointer (unicode is mandatory) in your application.
gollark: The only downsides are *minor* extra dereferencing overhead and additional space.
gollark: osmarksßspointers can point to:- local virtual memory- local physical memory- local disks- local files- other osmarksßspointers™- registers- arbitrary IPv4/6 addresses- URLs- arbitrary IPv4/6 addresses *and ports*- the output of short pieces of code embedded in the pointer
gollark: Actually, it should be 256 for osmarksßspointers™.
gollark: "Load far pointer" is only 80 bits → not 128 → uncool.
