We attended a small intimate concert featuring Eliza Gilkyson in March. We have seen her some 8 or so times. She is a real artist and a treasure. Her latest recording is a secular take on spirit called Secular. <a href="https://www.allmusic.com/album/secularia-mw0003180864" id="LPlnk590594">https://www.allmusic.com/album/secularia-mw0003180864</a></div>

Austin-based songwriter Eliza Gilkyson has charted the ever-changing aspects of the world around her -- inner and outer -- for the better part of 40 years with brutal honesty and a poet's gift for detail. The Texas Songwriters Hall of Fame inductee has stubbornly
stuck to finding her own path through the minefield of American popular music without paying it too much mind.</div>

Here's to Jean Long. When we entered the Order after Thanksgiving in 1973, she was in the Atlanta House (through 1974). She was among the strongest women I had encountered having moved a year earlier to Atlanta with Terry from San Marcos, Texas (where we now
live). Jean taught school in a "rough" school--either junior high or high school. Near the end of her time in Atlanta, she cut her hair very short and that act was the "signal event" of her year. She kept it short thereafter, as I recall. </div>

I listened to the song – and while doing other things, her music kept playing through other songs on YouTube. I was both comforted and uplifted. THANK YOU!</p>

I'm growin weary of the human race<br>
hold my lamp up in everyone's face<br>
lookin for an honest man<br>
everyone tied to the turnin wheel<br>
everyone hidin from the things they feel<br>
well the truth's so hard it just don't seem real<br>
the shadow across this land<br>
people round here don't know what it means<br>
to suffer at the hands of our american dreams<br>
they turn their backs on the grisly scenes<br>
traced to the privileged sons<br>
they got their god they got their guns<br>
got their armies and the chosen ones<br>
but we'll all be burnin in the same big sun<br>
when the great correction comes<br>
down through the ages lovers of the mystery<br>
been sayin people let your love light shine<br>
poets and sages all throughout history<br>
say the light burns brightest in the darkest times<br>
it's the bitter end we've come down to<br>
the eye of the needle that we gotta get through<br>
but the end could be the start of something new<br>
when the great correction comes<br>
down through the ages….<br>
down to the wire runnin out of time<br>
still got hope in this heart of mine<br>
but the future waits on the horizon line<br>
for our daughters and our sons<br>
I don't know where this train's bound<br>
whole lotta people tryin to turn it around<br>
gonna shout til the walls come tumblin down<br>
and the great correction comes<br>
don't let me down<br>
when the great correction comes</span></p>
