If the sky that we look upon
Should tumble and fall,

Thanks for the reminder. He's one of my favorites and always will be. Even with his dip-shit politics in the early 70's. He still manages to transcend the mundane and speaks to something more fundamental.

He was iconic. So many truths stood out in his music. Politics are incidental to life. I think its interesting how God uses all things to serve his glory. All truth is Gods truth. Belief in something is separate from the truth itself.
