Hawker's Request is a song composed by Jon Woode for Lyrics by Robert Steven Hawker with the addition of a chorus by Jon Woode.

Written 6th Feb 2023
Recorded as a first take demo on the 21st Feb 2023

This song has been included in Del Osei-Owusu's  'Song Bird Session' at Islington Radio, Matt Hancock's BBC Introducing and Tom Brosseau's  'Great American Folk Show' in North Dakota, USA.

Hawker’s Request 

Sing from the chamber to the grave
Thus did the dead man say
A sound of melody I crave
Upon my burial-day
Bring forth some tuneful instruments
And let your voices rise
My spirit listened, as it went
To the music of the skies 

Chorus
Let’s sing a song for a passing 
One last song to lead us on
A Cornish song for our loved ones 
And to guide our spirits home

Sing sweetly while you travel on
And keep the funeral slow
The angels sing where I am gone
And you should sing below
Sing from the threshold to the porch
Until you hear the bell
And sing you loudly in the church
The Psalms I love so well

Chorus 

Then bear me gently to my grave
And as you pass along
Remember twas my wish to have
A pleasant funeral song
So earth to earth, and dust to dust
And though my flesh decay
My soul shall sing among the just
Until the Judgment-day Until the Judgment-day 

Chorus x2

After a year off I thought I'd ease my way back into recording with this electric version of a song I wrote back in the 80's, which I used to play simply with acoustic guitar.

I Was A Fool

Ascension Symphony: An Orchestral Odyssey in 4 Movements.
3. Movement: Breezy Ballet

In this part, the music evolves into a frenzy of lite dance and jubilant celebration. 
Infectious rhythms and exuberant melodies sweep listeners into a whirlwind of joy and harmony, 
as the traveler embraces the vibrant tapestry of life and revels in the sheer exhilaration of existence. 
With every beat, the orchestra pulses with the energy of liberation and liberation, inviting all to join in the jubilant festivities.

For listening to the other 3 movements, refer to the related album of the "Ascension Symphony".

Visions blur

This Song is a blues based rock song. Just for fun and to let the beast out for a little while. Back to basics. No frills just pure Blues Rock.
