Bump. :)
Then they for sudden joy did weep,
And I for sorrow sung,
That such a king should play bo-peep,
And go the fools among.
Prithee, nuncle, keep a schoolmaster that can teach
thy fool to lie: I would fain learn to lie.

Tan Shim Ga
Korean song

I mo mi ju go do ju go
Il bek pon go jo ju go
Beg gol ri jin to de yo
Nok shi ra do i ko ob ko
Im hyung han il pyun tan shim Ka sil chul li issu rya
Im hyung han il pyun tan shim Ka sil chul li issu rya.

Although my body perishes
And yet one thousand times dies
My bones become ashes
Even my soul vanishes
Still all my love and all my heart
Unchanging remain with you
My everlasting loyalty
Unchanging remains with you.

Well, since J.S. Bach dedicated all his works "Solo Dei Gloria", I'd have to say pretty much anything he ever wrote-- though I have a particular soft spot for "Wachet Auf Ruft Ans Die Stimme".

I also love Schubert's Mass in E Flat, and Beethoven's Mass in C. I could go on-- I'm a choral music lover, and most of the great choral works are Christian. But I'll stop with these for now.

I have always understood these both to be originally more or less religiously motivated. But with great, chill and/or tears inspiring music, I could not care less about the composer's motivation - it's the music, dude!

J. S. Bach: Toccata and Fugue D-minor (Always makes me shiver, in a good way.)



W. A. Mozart: In Diesen Heil'gen Hallen (If the guy has the voice, I cry. Every time. Salmela has.)

It’s organic. Make stuff for the internet that matters to you, even if it seems stupid. Do it because it’s good and feels important. Put up more cat pictures. Make more songs. Show your doodles. Give things away and take things that are free." - Maureen J

I have a lot of songs that fit this category. Our shared history is embossed with beautiful works by J. S. Bach, Charles Wesley, and Fanny Crosby.

I think I'll choose just one. And to give it a level of difficulty, I'll go with something composed in the last decade. This one is as close to perfect as they come:

I threw up on every song.

Well, not the last few, just dry wretched, nothing left to throw up see.

There are endless renaissance and baroque masses and such. I only like one. Not much of a chant fan. This has a lot of instruments and shit.
