The Beatitudes By Benjamin Tribe: Song Analysis
I have chosen my 5 song lyrics about the Beatitudes from “The Beatitudes Song” written by Benjamin Tribe.

My first song lyric is “Blessed are the poor in spirit those who see the sin in their hearts.” This relates to the Beatitude “Blessed are the poor in spirit” because it talks about the people who see and admit their strengths and weaknesses.

My second song lyrics is “Blessed are the one who is weeping cause sin has torn the whole world apart.” This relates to the Beatitude “Blessed are those who mourn” because it talks about the people who are aware of the good and bad that is around them.

My third song lyric is “Blessed are the merciful whose sins are forgiven and so they can forgive.” This song lyric relates to the Beatitude

    Much like poetry, “Music expresses that which cannot be put into words and that which cannot remain silent.” Music and poetry are two platforms in which artists from the beginning of time have chosen to circulate their ideas, feelings, and opinions. Although different in popularity, these mediums are alike in various ways. Nonetheless, not every song you hear on the radio can be properly analyzed using procedures that you would follow to evaluate poetry. A song has to contain certain literary elements essential to poetry, such as the song “From Eden” by Hozier, in order for it to be analyzed. Hozier is recognized for his sentimental lyrics and use of poetic elements to add musicality and rhythm to his music. Through symbolism, repetition, and…

    Martin Luther King has been known for using peace to help him get equality among all people but especially African-Americans. He was not the type of leader that resorted to violence in order to get the equality that he fought for. King has been known for moving people by the use of his speeches like King’s I Have a Dream and I’ve Been to the Mountaintop speeches. King shows through these speeches that even though he was determined to get equal rights for every African-American, he was only going to stick to subtle, nonviolent ways like court cases, protest, and boycotts. This philosophy is the exact opposite to Malcolm X, another Civil Rights Leader, who thought that African American should not waste their time on protest and boycotts (Document 7). Malcolm, like King, was not in favor of violence but believe that African Americans should by all means use violence to protect themselves when they “attacked by racists” (Document 9). But, Martin Luther King’s philosophy was more beneficial for the African-American community then Malcolm X’s because the effort that he put into his nonviolent philosophy made gaining rights more successful and more meaningful.…
