This fits nicely here. I'm sorry to know that your laptop won't co-operate with the music NW for you'd surely enjoy this one. In lieu of the music, I'll share the words...

~*~
If it be your will
That I speak no more
And my voice be still
As it was before
I will speak no more
I shall abide until
I am spoken for
If it be your will
If it be your will
That there is a voice
From this broken hill
I will sing to you
From this broken hill
All your praises they shall ring
If it be your will
To let me sing
From this broken hill
All your praises they shall ring
If it be your will
To let me sing
... the heart of the sounds
are just the response to
what struck me as genuine
whatever that curious emanation
from a being, or an object, or a situation, or a landscape
That had a very powerful effect on me
as it does on everyone
and I prayed to have some response
to the things that were so clearly beautiful to me
and there were a lot...
If it be your will
If there is a choice
Let the rivers fill
Let the hills rejoice
Let your mercy spill
On all these burning hearts in hell
If it be your will
To make us well
And draw us near
And bind us tight
All your children here
In their rags of light
In our rags of light
All dressed to kill
And end this night
If it be your will
Leonard Cohen
