@[Tmo2199:44621] http://https//www.christian-history.org/everyman.html I would re read the lyrics after reading the play. This is a profound song lyric, written for the ages by a genius. I left a detailed comment to wearydreamer. |

@[wearydreamer:44620] The Everyman is a recurring theme in literature. https://artscolumbia.org/everyman-literature-analysis-175382/ https://www.christian-history.org/everyman.html And so Jesus is an Everyman, as is Everyman the character in this play. And so: Everyman Into your hands, Lord, my soul I commend; Receive it, Lord, that it be not lost; As you me bought, so me defend, And save me from the fiend's boast, That I may appear with that blessed host That shall be saved at the day of doom. In manus tuas—of might's most For ever—commendo spiritum meum. Knowledge Now has he suffered that we all shall endure; The Good Deeds shall make all sure. Now has he made ending; Me thinks that I hear angels sing And make great joy and melody, Where Everyman's soul received shall be. Angel Come, excellent elect spouse to Jesus: Hereabove you shalt go Because of your singular virtue: Now the soul is taken from the body; Now shall you go into the heavenly sphere, To the which all you shall come That live well before the day of doom. Everyman as noted above in the Morality play, is torn between good and evil and with the help of many triumphs. Everyman is admitted to heaven. I will let you read the play. As I write I recall my college paper on the Everyman. Getting back to Jackson Brown. With Jackson’s typical approach, his language while the regular speech of the Everyman acknowledges the complexity of the struggle as we journey through life and beyond Everyman is Jesus and as Jackson is hoping, at some point he will be seen as a worthy Everyman Thanks Jackson so much for saying so very much in the language of the Everyman!

| Joni Mitchell – Both Sides Now Lyrics | 11 years ago |
|
It is one of Joni Mitchell's best-known songs (along with "Big Yellow Taxi", "Woodstock", and "A Case of You"). It was written in March 1967, inspired by a passage in Henderson the Rain King by Saul Bellow. I was reading Saul Bellow's "Henderson the Rain King" on a plane and early in the book Henderson the Rain King is also up in a plane. He's on his way to Africa and he looks down and sees these clouds. I put down the book, looked out the window and saw clouds too, and I immediately started writing the song. I had no idea that the song would become as popular as it did.[1][2] Next we look at Joni's life. She had just broken up with her husband. She had time on her hands on this airplane. The feelings of grief, and what people do when we are grieving are evident in the song. During these times, we are less sure of ourselves. So often the most beautiful songs are sad. |
