This song came about one Monday night at the Witler House gathering in Northside. We would often have a time set apart for worship, and occasionally we would do improv worship. One day, our good friend Isaac Karnes was jamming a simple folk progession on the acoustic and Justin Carabello began to belt out the opening lines of Psalm 34, I will bless the Lord at all times! The simple lyrics and melody quickly caught on, and a group of 25 young people began to shout/sing praises to God! Soon, Justin orchestrated a round and we would sing the same song for 10 minutes straight, in pure joy. It became a staple worship song for that group, and I continued to bring it back anytime I lead worship. God is worthy of praise at all times! Let His praise be in your mouth at all times for His goodness to all!
lyrics
I wil bless the Lord at all times
His praise shall be continually in my mouth
Magnify the Lord, Magnify His wonderful Name!

It may not be a full-fledged LP, but All Delighted People is probably my favourite of Sufjan's works. Without an overaching album theme to tie the songs together, it felt like Sufjan was free to experiment on each track and give them their own unique sound. And because of that (and Sufjan's talent), every track on there is a standout track. Angkasawan
