Be a Man

A good summary of the "Vast Sea of Grace" series can also be found in this song from Tony Vincent, especially in the chorus. (I gave the details for sampling and purchasing the CD last time). I honestly cry tears of desperation and hope for people I know sometimes when I hear this song. Sometimes the tears are for myself, as I continue to grow in grace. By the way, if you're a woman it goes without saying that this is for you too. :)

Tony Vincent - Be a Man

His daddy told him when he was five
Real men don't cry
The whole world sold him this pack of lies
Real men don't cry
So his tender heart turns colder
As the days turn into years
He's erasing all the traces of his tears

He wants to be a man
He wants to be strong
But it's hard to know exactly what to do
‘cause he can't be the man
He's meant to be
'till he can be a man
Who finds himself in you

He's building walls and they're ten feet high
Real men don't cry
As deep within him his spirit dies
Real men don't cry
Oh, embrace him, Man of Sorrows
Show him what a man can be
'till there's nothing left to prove and he is free

He wants to be a man
He wants to be strong
But it's hard to know exactly what to do
'cause he can't be the man
He's meant to be
'till he can be a man
Who finds himself in you
