      Seems like this song was written while travelling through the Holy Land. A lot of references to Jesus. Great tune.

      Shockingly powerful. Reminds me of the narration for Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Marvelous!

      Indeed:

      The place where the word became a man
      is the place where the suffering began

      the beginning of patriarchy with male gods

      That line "...for my head is bending low" seems to refer to the mid-19th century American song "Old Black Joe" which is about a servant/slave who is dying. Coincidentally, that song was also referenced by two other Coens (Joel and Ethan) in their film about depressed writer "Barton Fink". Old Black Joe was re-popularized in the mid-20th century as "Poor Old Joe" by the blacklisted artist Paul Robeson.

      Leonard, you are an incredibly talented and gifted man. How wonderful for the rest of us. I saw you in concert in Halifax and it was one of the highlights of my life. Live on.

      Tellement émue par votre voix intense et profonde cher Leonard. Je vous écoute depuis tant d'années, ai appris vos chansons à d'autres, les ai chantées à la guitare... Merci pour ce cadeau offert sur Soundcloud. *✿* Merci pour tout ce bonheur musical partagé et vivement la sortie de votre prochain CD ♪(☀‿☀)♫.
