Are you ready to meet Jesus?
Are you where you ought to be?
Will He know you when He sees you
Or will He say, "Depart from Me"? "Are You Ready?"
The man said, "Get out of here or I'll tear you limb from
limb."
I said, "You know, they refused Jesus, too." He said "Your not
Him. "Bob Dylan's 115th Dream"
He was the Rose of Sharon, from Paradise Lost,
From the City of Seven Hills, near the place of the cross,
"Caribbean Wind"
Told about Jesus, told about the rain,
She told me about the jungle where her brothers were slain,
By the man who invented iron, who disappeared so mysteriously.
"Caribbean Wind
They sang Danny Boy at his funeral, and The Lord's Prayer,
Preacher talked about Christ betrayed. "Foot of Pride"
Stripes on your shoulders,
Stripes on your back and on your hands.
Swords piercing your side,
Blood and water flowing through the land.
"Gonna Change My Way of Thinking"
Jesus said, "Be ready,
For you know not the hour in which I come."
He said, "He who is not for Me is against Me,"
Just so you know where He's coming from.
"Gonna Change My Way of Thinking"
There's a lone soldier on the cross,
Smoke pourin' out of a boxcar door. "Idiot Wind"
When they came for Him in the garden, did they know?
Did they know He was the Son of God, did they know that He was
Lord? "In the Garden"
Someone who will die for you and more,
But it ain't me, Babe, "IT Ain't Me, Babe"
Disillusioned words like bullets bark,
As human gods aim for their mark,
Make everything from toy guns that spark,
To flesh colored Christs that glow in the dark,
"It's All Right Ma, I'm Only Bleeding"
Heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter,
Heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley,
"A Hard Rain's Gonna Fall"
"There must be some way out of here,"
said the joker to the thief,
"There's too much confusion,
I can't get no relief. "All Along the Watchtower"
Don't be a fool, don't be blind,
Heart of mine. "Heart of Mine"
If I'm a fool you can have the night,
you can have the morning
too. "Is Your Love in Vain"
I'm back in the rain, "You're A Big Girl Now"
with:
"tonight as I stand inside in the rain ...
It was raining at first' "Just Like A Woman"
also compare the title of "You're A Big Girl Now" with 'she
breaks just like a little girl':
Is the later song an answer to the earlier one, as if the
scorn shown to the first `immature' woman is compensated by
the respect shown for the later woman's 'maturity'?
