Pop Reggae Spiritual

In the midst of all that is going on in my life and the world, I find a little solace in music.

My uncle introduced me to Bob Marley as a boy. The spiritual side of Reggae is often lost in the shuffle of modern dance-hall sexuality and crudeness. Mr. Marley and this man have more to say:


"Fires burning
Flames are dancing
Don't burn the house down Lord
Heavenly fire only resides on an altar made from the ground

Fire descends on high in the shape of a lion
Burn the sacrifice of pride and ride on to Mount Zion"

"Fire Of Heaven / Altar Of Earth" - Matisyahu, Youth
