Mr. Cohen credits Judy Collins in another place for ‘finding him,’ but in this swan song as it were, I see the hand of God in his life. Perhaps unknown to even him, this humble oration screams of a Creator, as seen in man who is made in the image of God.
The beginning, the speaking without notes, the center, the cadence, the cascade, ending with a finale of grace, is testament to the spirit of man which is able to interpret the deep things of life.
This is really worth listening to, entirely. All of us have a song unique to us, waiting to be found and played. Truth always finds the right chord.
(P.S. -take note of his admission regarding the soil of the earth. Indeed from the dust of the ground comes forth all that is, courtesy of the Creator)

“This is really worth listening to, entirely. All of us have a song unique to us, waiting to be found and played. Truth always finds the right chord.” This is third time I have been exposed to this concept within the past 24 hours. (One of which was from my own hand!) Hmmmmm….

Agree mb. He has a rare genius, and knowing a bit of his backdrop makes his music a bit sweeter.
Then again, I have heard the music in your stuff too. 😉

If I could only say: ‘O great Lord above……….play your tune through me………..’
If I could only get out of the way……….. and into THE Way………
But nonetheless, tkx for your kinship ms bytes. We do play to the incomparable Musician.
We are workers together with Him who holds all things together, whether visible or invisible; kinda nice of God to be so linked with jars of clay yes? 😉

So then you cannot help but to mock EVERYTHING Godward.
And you cannot allow believers to share plain delight without interjecting your darkness?
You would also mock God for putting a
song in the wren………….

Wrens sing to attract mates and to mark territory.

I actually feel sorry for you that every single comment of yours is viewed through the foggy and broken lens of godlessness.
Yeah, like wrens ‘evolved’ from rocks or earthworms, having no clue what seeing, hearing, eating, mating, and flying is……….
Stop before you will choke on the noose of your own embarrassment.

CS SEZ: Hey arch, take this comment (poison rather) to julie or tricia, or anybody else that has more patience than I, as I will not entertain further your nonsense. Decency does have its limits. And blog ownership has its privileges.
Btw, take a close look at this post, and the good comments by others, and how YOU at whatever cost, must create your own sideshow. Tis a pity.
