Luyện nghe bài hát Reflections upon the Distress and Agony of Faith

If you respect yourself and worry about your soul you you
must live a stricter and more life than even a virgin in a
maiden's bower. It is that there are those who need to be
forced and tamedand who would tumble about like beasts in
lustful frenzy if they were free. It is true and you can see it
now, quite close at your house. But you have to show
that you are not one of that kind, by talking it with anguish
and fear. And talk you must with awe about the things, the
great eternal truths, so that won't be forgotten. If you can't
their horrors, nor can you see their greatness.
Now let's consider the distress and agony of the of faith:
The tragic hero acts to fame and glory for himself. The knight
of faith gives up his to become the common man,
become"Everyman". It all depends on the will. If you think
easy to be a single man, sufficient to yourself, you can be
you are not a knight of faith.

Wild birds and wandering are not the true knights. These
how blessed it is to belong to the common.

The true knight also knows how pleasant and it is to be
an individual who, so to speak, translates himself a clean, neat
and flawless edition , readable to each and everyone. He that
it is refreshing to be understandable to everybody, as as he
also understands the common truths, and both of them in
their confidence of the common. He rests assure that it's
pleasant to be born as a separate individual who is at in the
common, the and lasting place on Earth, which will receive
him with arms, when he finally wishes to rest there. But he
also knows that far beyond there is a lonely, narrow and steep
path, winding its way through the wilderness. He knows it
would be like to be born outside the common and to have to
travel alone without meeting a single soul. He knows quite
he is and what his relation to other people is like.

From a human point of view he is and can't
with anybody. To put it mildly: he is as mad as a
hatter. If he isn't regarded as such he is a hypocrite and the
he along the way the worse hypocrisy.

The of faith know how engulfing it is to give themselves
up for the sake of the common. Courage is needed, but is
also a of confidence since it is for common man. He knows
a glorious thing it is to be understood by every truthful noble
man, and by doing so be nobler in the mind himself. All he
knows and feels as if committed to this faith. He like to
think that would be his mission of life...
