~Favorite Songs about Men~





Neil Young Old Man



"Old Man"

Old man look at my life, I'm a lot like you were. Old man look at my life, I'm a lot like you were.

Old man look at my life, Twenty four and there's so much more Live alone in a paradise That makes me think of two.

Love lost, such a cost, Give me things that don't get lost. Like a coin that won't get tossed Rolling home to you.

Old man take a look at my life I'm a lot like you I need someone to love me the whole day through Ah, one look in my eyes and you can tell that's true.

Lullabies, look in your eyes, Run around the same old town. Doesn't mean that much to me To mean that much to you.

I've been first and last Look at how the time goes past. But I'm all alone at last. Rolling home to you.

Old man take a look at my life I'm a lot like you I need someone to love me the whole day through Ah, one look in my eyes and you can tell that's true.

Old man look at my life, I'm a lot like you were. Old man look at my life, I'm a lot like you were.

Kansas - Carry On Wayward Son


Refrain} Carry on my wayward son There'll be peace when you are done Lay your weary head to rest Don't you cry no more Once I rose above the noise and confusion Just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion I was soaring ever higher But I flew too high Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man Though my mind could think I still was a mad man I hear the voices when I'm dreaming I can hear them say {Refrain} Masquerading as a man with a reason My charade is the event of the season And if I claim to be a wise man, well It surely means that I don't know On a stormy sea of moving emotion Tossed about I'm like a ship on the ocean I set a course for winds of fortune But I hear the voices say {Refrain} No! Carry on, you will always remember Carry on, nothing equals the splendor Now your life's no longer empty Surely heaven waits for you

Taking Root

July 26, 2013

A small area of my yard just couldn’t seem to get going. The grass always seemed sparse in that spot, no matter how well I watered it.

So one day I stuck a shovel into this troublesome real estate and discovered the problem: Just below the surface was a layer of stones about three inches deep. This led me to replace the stones with rich topsoil in which new seeds could take root.

Jesus talked about seed and soils. In a parable in Matthew 13 about what happens when the seed of the gospel is sown on various kinds of ground, He said that seeds that land on stones and “not much earth” grow quickly but then die in the sun (vv.5-6). He was speaking of one who has heard and received the gospel, but in whose life the message doesn’t take root. When trouble comes, this person—who is not a genuine believer—falls away.

How grateful we can be for Jesus’ words that conclude this parable: “He who received seed on the good ground is he who hears the Word and understands it, who indeed bears fruit” (v.23). What a reminder of both the privilege and the responsibility that accompanies our salvation.

Praise God for the seed of the gospel and the soil of spiritual growth.

Lord, I would be soil in which You can plant
Your Word with its promise of fruit;
I want to be open to You every day,
So what You have planted takes root. —Hess
A heart open to God is soil in which the seed of His Word can flourish.

Read: Matthew 13:1-9

Some fell on stony places, where they did not have much earth; and they immediately sprang up. —Matthew 13:5
Bible in a Year:
Psalms 40-42; Acts 27:1-26

John Anderson

“I’m Just An Old Chunk Of Coal (But I’m Gonna Be A Diamond Someday)”
Songwriters: SHAVER, BILLY

Hey I’m just an old chunk of coal
But I’m gonna be a diamond some day
I’m gonna grow and glow till I’m so blue pure perfect
I’m gonna put a smile on everybody’s face

I’m gonna kneel and pray every day
And last I should become vain along the way
And I’m just an old chunk of coal now Lord
But I’m gonna be a diamond some day

I’m gonna learn the best way to walk
I’m gonna search and find a better way to talk
And I’m gonna spit and polish my old rough edged self
Till I get rid of every single flaw

Yea, I’m gonna be the world’s greatest friend
I’m gonna go round shaking everybody’s hand
I’m gonna be the cotton pickin’ rage of the age
Yea, I’m gonna be a diamond some day

Now I’m just an old chunk of coal
But I’m gonna be a diamond some day
Hey and I’m gonna grow and glow till I’m so blue pure perfect
I’m gonna put a smile on everybody’s face

I’m gonna kneel and pray every day
And last I should become vain along the way
Hey and I’m just an old chunk of coal now Lord
But I’m gonna be a diamond some day
And yea, I’m gonna be the cotton pickin’ rage of the age
Yea, I’m gonna be a diamond some day
