Oh Hellos, The - O Sleeper Lyrics
While the weary nations weep
Awakening me from a dream
I see the moonlight steal across my sheets
My love is lying fast asleep
Chasing its beams
The clouds overhead open up
For the wicked and just all the same
And lay low the hills, so to fill
Every valley below to the brim
But like the sun that turns the sky
Illuminating all, in time
The tables in the temple will be turned on their side
And just as it scorches up the dunes
The pillars of the empire will be burned, in kind
And by the holy rock I stand
As blessed as the sacred ram
I see the trail of shoulders I've climbed over, but
By god, I'll bloody up my hands
With everything I am
To cut away the mountains I've made
And fill the dales below

Oh Hellos, The O Sleeper Comments
i live for maggie’s voice she’s such a gorgeous talented woman
They tryna summon C'thulu change my mind.
Lovely!
Still don’t know what the last line means, but I still love this song. Christian music like this is genuinely helping my faith a ton
We need some new OH music!
I want them to come to my house and sing me to sleep
So my sister listened to this and she said the bass sucks because it feels like the bass is loose and now I can’t listen to this song without thinking that the bass sucks help-
Am I the only one who heard the start and was expecting ride of the Valkyries
Her voice sounds like an erhu
You know its good when your spine starts to shiver
The album covers sort of kind of remind me of the cover art on the ESV Illuminated Scripture Journals
Still can’t tell if this is a kick ass band with stellar lyrics, or a Christian band who broke the veil of terrible Christian media
As a Christian, I adore the Oh Hellos's music! Funny thing is, I feel more connected to God while listening to this music than I do listening to the music on Christian radio
They've got those great lyrics and music that are the mark of true art. Andrew Peterson is another one like that. He's less folksy though. I love these guys tho.
Necro-ing because I'm always here, haha. I am essentially pagan, and by pure intention. As such, I can clearly recognize the spiritual agony that they write about in their songs, maybe from the other side of it. It is beautiful, and full of more power and meaning than most anything else I've listened to in recent years. That would be the difference, is that it is real music, with some biblical allegories. Don't get too offended by my perspective, I literally used to be in a christian band despite my own issues, so I do know something about it.
Every song by these people is amazing, i wish they got more attention ;-;
I picture playing this when I'm sat in the EuroRail amidst the Alps 😍
“By god I’ll bloody up my hands with everything I am” fills me with so much emotion I love it
Magic is real, it's in this song
Now, to listen to every song created by The Oh Hello's
get ready for a real adventure. 🌹
once i heard 'soldier,poet,king' i did this and i felt like i just traveled the countrysides of europe, the forests and the mountains and god it felt like i was breathing it in throUgH mY eArS
I wish I could be fluent in English. I wanted to understand this work of art letter by letter.
Animaker yeah I find it very hard, and I even look into mythology
@Krzy Same. But for me, Greek stuff is more my domain. Bible stuff is less funny and ridiculous
@Animaker mood
Animaker as someone who has read the Bible cover to cover many times I disagree lmao
@Ashley W Okay it's less gay tho lol
This is the kind of songwriting and composition that makes my hair stand on end and sends shivers down my spine. It's pure, awestruck emotion.
The energy you guys had as I watched you live.... Astounding. Keep it up guys. You shook my world.
All the music you make is magic 😅😍
geez that last verse got me on the verge of tears
same!! shit is fucking POWERFUL
Beautiful!!!! I love everything you do, Oh Hellos!!!!
I missed this by a day! I feel so ashamed. I beg your forgiveness Lord Tyler and Lady Maggie for my negligence.
Same! I can't believe I just saw this today!!!
It was actually released at midnight, so you technically made it within the time slot (they said it would be released today, and it was - very early) so don’t fret. You’re here, are you not? :) I actually missed Notos by a day or two and made sure not to make the same mistake again!
Name dropping like
I'm crying :'(
they're all so beautiful.
while the weary nations weep
awakening me from a dream
I see the moonlight steal across my sheets
my love is lying fast asleep
chasing its beams
she stirs, and then she turns her back to me
the clouds overhead open up
for the wicked and just all the same
and lay low the hills, so to fill
every valley below to the brim
but like the sun that turns the sky
illuminating all, in time
the tables in the temple will be turned on their side
and just as it scorches up the dunes
beneath the height of noon
the pillars of the empire will be burned, in kind
and by the holy rock I stand
as blessed as the sacred ram
I see the trail of shoulders I climbed over, but
by god, I'll bloody up my hands
with everything I am
to cut away the mountains I've made
and fill the dales below
Thank you
Yeah, thanks.
Much obliged.
I came upon your comment just as they started singing wow
