1.​ ​Psalm one (feat. Dominique Christina)

from Blessed is the Man by Dale Carl Fredrickson

/

  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    Blessed is the man is the story of how men can grow their capacity for mutual LOVE and become openhearted, emotionally expressive, and relationally connected. It challenges toxic masculinity that has caused woman and children harm through unchecked anger, emotional repression, and self-reliant pride. This album uses poetry and the sounds of banjos, mandolins, saxophones, violins, and guitars to inspire men (and those who care about men) to let LOVE shape their lives and write their stories.

lyrics

Blessed is the man
Who has not walked in the counsel of the wicked,
and in the way of sinners has not stood,
and in the seat of scoffers has not sat.
But in the law of YHWH is his delight,
and on his law he meditates day and night.
And he shall be like a tree
planted by the streams of water,
which brings forth its fruit in its season,
and its leaf does not wither;
and all that he does shall prosper.
The wicked are not so,
But are like the chaff which the wind drives away.
Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
For YHWH knows the way of the righteous;
but the way of the wicked shall perish.
—Psalm 1 *American Literary Edition (based on the1901 ASV)

He writes and speaks about beauty and misery and his favorite story is the one about how love surprises us in the end. He fails a lot. On his best days, he lives by Samuel Beckett’s motto, “Try again. Fail again. Fail better.” ... more
