jesus.

The first time I heard this Sufjan Stevens song it was on one of the OC soundtracks. It was a Seth + Summer love song. Ridiculous! But I love it. So simple. So glad to serve a God who knows the pain of being human.

i'd swim across lake michigan
i'd sell my shoes
i'd give my body to be back again
in the rest of the room

to be alone with you

you gave your body to the lonely
they took your clothes
you gave up a wife and a family
you gave your ghost

to be alone with me

you went upon a tree
to be alone with me
you went upon a tree

i've never known a man who loved me...
