    My 95 year old father passed last month, a veteran of 2 wars and a wonderful father, husband and all around human being, knew this time was coming but still hard, although I believe he’s in a better place, his body was failing but his spirit remained strong, god bless dad.

    "To drop the flesh off of the frame. The earth and worms both have a claim" it's beautiful in its own way. Without death, there can not be life. Destruction brings creation and creation brings destruction

    Such a heavy, serious, realistic song interpretation of the final journey we must all take at some point in our lives. Only knowing and trusting in Christ gives it purpose, meaning and redeeming value. I can't hardly fathom the fact that the Holy, sinless Son of God would willingly succumb to the agony, sorrow and excruciating pain and loss of dying on the cross--to save wretched, unworthy sinners. Praise to the One who suffered not just physically on our behalf but spiritually as well! If we know Him and trust Him we will only experience dying physically. Thank you, Lord Jesus for loving us so much!

      It’s a Really Super Old Song. It goes way way back to where people sang it slow & sorrowful struggling through poverty. Super old.
      It only got amped up for the movie. Truth.

    I can't stop replaying this song. It is the soul of humanity; it is a bleak cry, yet a spark of divinity projects Ben's voice to the heavens, and in that is a beautiful hopefulness.

    Уже много лет певцы делятся для меня на две неравные группы.
    Те, кто может петь по-настоящему народные песни.
    И все остальные.
    Встретить того, кто понимает народное пение, независимо от нации, для меня настоящее чудо.
