Working on Hebrews 6 and this seems appropriate (it’s not a great recording but you get the point).

His album Saved helped me to see Reformed theology. “…stone cold dead I stepped out of the womb, saved, I’ve been saved by the blood of the lamb.”
“turn thou me, and I shall be turned; for thou art the LORD my God.”
– Jer. 31:18
Don’t know if he still does, but his lyrics (prayer) in this song point to a hope in the mercy of God…
Don’t let me drift too far
Keep me where you are
Where I will always be renewed
And that which you’ve given me today
Is worth more than I could pay
And no matter what they say
I believe in you.
I believe in you when winter turn to summer
I believe in you when white turn to black
I believe in you even though I be outnumbered
Oh, though the earth may shake me
Oh, though my friends forsake me
Oh, even that couldn’t make me go back.
Don’t let me change my heart
Keep me set apart
From all the plans they do pursue
And I, I don’t mind the pain
Don’t mind the driving rain
I know I will sustain
‘Cause I believe in you…
Dylan and good theology? Whao. Fantastic!

I wonder if Dylan, who is now 72, still believes any of that which he sang.
I like this cover by John Doe, from the movie I’m Not There
This is great… Pressing on! We’re all beggars, plodding along by his grace…
