It was like murdering two of your children. I try to make the readers feel they’ve lived the events of the book. Just as you grieve if a friend is killed, you should grieve if a fictional character is killed. You should care. If somebody dies and you just go get more popcorn, it’s a superficial experience isn’t it? ↗

#music #song-lyrics #faith

Night gathers, and now my watch begins. It shall not end until my death. I shall take no wife, hold no lands, father no children. I shall wear no crowns and win no glory. I shall live and die at my post. I am the sword in the darkness. I am the watcher on the walls. I am the fire that burns against cold, the light that brings the dawn, the horn that wakes the sleepers, the shield that guards the realms of men. I pledge my life and honor to the Night's Watch, for this night and all the nights to come. ↗

But his singing was unconscious and irrepressible - an expression of his native exuberance, the dreamy, buoyant soundtrack running through his head. ↗

The father will descend, The father will descend. The earth will tremble, The earth will tremble. Everybody will arise, Everybody will arise. Stretch out your hands. Stretch out your hands. ↗

Though all the world betrays thee, One sword, at least, thy rights shall guard, One faithful harp shall praise thee! ↗

I will never hurt you. I will always help you. If you are hungry Ill give you my food. If you are frightened I am your friend. I love you now. And love does not end. ↗

The word's forgiveness... Look it up. It's what Jesus has in store for you but I won't no matter what! ↗
