Gentle On My Mind
John Hartford
It’s knowing that your door is always open and your path is free to walk,
That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag rolled up and stashed behind your couch.
And it’s knowing I’m not shackled by forgotten words and bonds and the ink stains that have dried upon some line,
That keeps you in the back roads by the rivers of memory, that keeps you ever gentle on my mind.
It’s not clinging to the rocks and ivy planted on their columns now that bind me,
Or something that somebody said because they thought we fit together walkin’.
It’s just knowing that the world will not be cursing or forgiving when I walk along some railroad track and find
That you’re moving on the back roads by the rivers of my memory and for hours you’re just gentle on my mind.
Though the wheat fields and the clothes lines and the junkyards and the highways come between us,
And some other woman’s crying to her mother ‘cause she turned and I was gone.
I still might run in silence, tears of joy might stain my face and summer sun might burn me till I’m blind,
But not to where I cannot see you walkin’ on the back roads, by the rivers flowing gentle on my mind.
I dip my cup of soup back from the gurglin’, crackling cauldron in some train yard;
My beard a roughn’ning coal pile and a dirty hat pulled low across my face;
Through cupped hands ‘round a tin can, I pretend I hold you to my breast and find,
That you’re wavin’ from the back roads by the rivers of my memory ever smilin’, ever gentle on my mind.
For the country western fans, Roger Miller’s version of “Hot Rod Lincoln” (nice geeee-tar work!)

I was frustrated that despite my repeated calls, the streetlight in front of my house was still out. Because we dont have sidewalks and there is such a large distance between the streetlights, its important that each light is functional to illuminate the darkness. I worried that I might hit one of the school kids as I pulled out of my driveway in the early morning hours.
The idea of light is used frequently in the Bible. Jesus said that He is the Light of the world (John 9:5). We are told to put on the armor of light by clothing ourselves with the Lord (Rom. 13:12-14). And Matthew 5:16 instructs that we should let [our] light so shine before men, that they may see [our] good works and glorify [our] Father in heaven.
A light that doesnt shine has lost its usefulness. Jesus said that no one hides a light under a basket but puts it on a lampstand to illuminate everything around it (Matt. 5:15). Our light (our actions) should point people to the One who is the Light. We dont have any light in ourselves, but we shine with the reflection of Christ (Eph. 5:8).
God has placed each of us in a specific environment that will best allow us to shine with His light. Dont be like a burned-out streetlight. Shine on!
