Every Grain Of Sand

NOTE: Depending on the speed of your Internet connection, you may have to let the download of this song "buffer" ahead for a moment so you don't get any lag in playing.

Bob Dylan is a poet, and this song in my opinion brings his poetry to his soul. I've read quite a bit about this song from different sources . He mixes the
foundations of Christianity on one side with his acceptance of it on the
other. The first verse starts out with him viewing the world through the
eyes of Christ while He was on the cross. As Christ confessed and called to the Father. In the hour of his deepest need, when the pool of tears at the
foot of the cross promised the salvation and rebirth of all humanity, according to
Christianity. From then on he describes the challenge of turning away from
the direction his life had taken him towards a new beginning. He talks of his own rags to riches story and his own loneliness. I love and have always loved spiritual , introspective songs, and this composition is among the best.

Whatever your faith or interpretation of your own spiritual path, if you are familiar at all with The Bible you will immediately recognize the references to Christ's agony of the cross, and to God seeing every sparrow that falls, and numbering every hair and every grain of sand.

The first time I heard this song over 25 years ago it moved me deeply, and it continues to do so today.

*Every Grain Of Sand*

In the time of my confession, in the hour of my deepest need
When the pool of tears beneath my feet flood every newborn seed
There’s a dyin’ voice within me reaching out somewhere
Toiling in the danger and in the morals of despair

Don’t have the inclination to look back on any mistake
Like Cain, I now behold this chain of events that I must break
In the fury of the moment I can see the Master’s hand
In every leaf that trembles, in every grain of sand

Oh, the flowers of indulgence and the weeds of yesteryear
Like criminals, they have choked the breath of conscience and good cheer
The sun beat down upon the steps of time to light the way
To ease the pain of idleness and the memory of decay

I gaze into the doorway of temptation’s angry flame
And every time I pass that way I always hear my name
Then onward in my journey I come to understand
That every hair is numbered like every grain of sand

I have gone from rags to riches in the sorrow of the night
In the violence of a summer’s dream, in the chill of a wintry light
In the bitter dance of loneliness fading into space
In the broken mirror of innocence on each forgotten face

I hear the ancient footsteps like the motion of the sea
Sometimes I turn, there’s someone there, other times it’s only me
I am hanging in the balance of the reality of man
Like every sparrow falling, like every grain of sand
