Not exactly a worship song as the title may suggest – I don’t even remember how I came across this. This song is rather popular apparently but I’ve never really know what it was, let alone found out there’s so many versions of it (I love exploring different arrangements!) I think this song might have been on the soundtrack for House in some episode. Its definitely in the soundtrack for two major movies – see if you can figure out what they are.

This version by Jeff Buckley is often regarded as the definitive version, but isn’t the original!

Original version by the songwriter Leonard Cohen (Canadian!)

Yet another take by Rufus Wainwright:

If you’re so inclined, Justin Timberlake did a recent live cover for this song as well for the Haiti fundraiser – you can find that on youtube as well – not putting it here since its not very different from the arrangements above.

Now name the movieS this song showed up in 🙂
