      Your words made me smile. They're wonderful performers. I think they deserves all the love and support for their amazing songs that makes the mind to travel in awe while being entertained. Have you been to their concert before?

    I'll never forget the night I saw Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers 40th Anniversary in Ottawa Canada with the Webb Sisters as backup vocals! Haunting and moving performance with incredible harmonies altogether! I'd give anything to relive that night. R.I.P. Tom Petty. October 1st 2017, we lost a true legend of music.

    This is as perfect an example as you could find of a lyric driven song with instrumentation that augments and enhances the words. They match perfectly.

    Mr. Cohen showed his ability to find the right word, the perfect adjective, when he always referred to them as "The sublime Webb sisters."

  • @bradgregory6995

    Perfect example of Leonard's gift for words that he always refers to them as "The sublime Webb Sisters". For so they are. "Blood harmony" folks, and Cohen's true voice...

    The Webb Sisters do such a beautiful rendition of this song of Leonhard's. I can easily see why he had them on his tour. They add so much feeling to it, glad to be one that has experienced it!

    If it be your will
    That I speak no more
    And my voice be still
    As it was before
    I will speak no more
    I shall abide until
    I am spoken for
    If it be your will
    If it be your will
    That a voice be true
    From this broken hill
    I will sing to you
    From this broken hill
    All your praises they shall ring
    If it be your will
    To let me sing
    From this broken hill
    All your praises they shall ring
    If it be your will
    To let me sing
    If it be your will
    If there is a choice
    Let the rivers fill
    Let the hills rejoice
    Let your mercy spill
    On all these burning hearts in hell
    If it be your will
    To make us well
    And draw us near
    And bind us tight
    All your children here
    In their rags of light
    In our rags of light
    All dressed to kill
    And end this night
    If it be your will
    If it be your will

      the night he died i laid under my kitchen table and played this song-his version-over and over. i don't know why i wept so hard, old men die every day. it was pure selfishness, his life was full and accomplished. i pitied my own stupid self that i'd never hear another new cohen song, or read another poem he'd written. i used "if it be your will" to remind me that there was so much more life in those words and their meanings than one body or life could hold. i'll play leonard cohen records for my son. i'll read him his poetry. that beauty-born of nervousness and hurt-will live on long after, if it be his will.

    Rest in peace Leonard Cohen, my husband and I cried some tears this morning,on the news of his death, it would be so fitting if the Webb sister could get back together just this once to perform some of his songs . the King of expressive poetry the champion of oppressed and the the man who could move are emotions like no other, bless you Leonard. rest in peace.

      I was working at a gaming convention the day it happened. My wife noticed the news earlier in the day and chose to wait until we got back to our hotel room to tell me. It was a good thing she did. I cried with her that evening.

      It has been a little over a year since Leonard Cohen left this world on his journey into the unknown. I try to listen to his music every day and sometimes the tears still flow. His was a great and important voice for all of humanity.

The scheduled text from Hebrew scripture for the week was Genesis 22: 1-14, the Offering of Isaac! I wonder what story Leonard had in mind when he penned this lyric....

    Too bad Leonard writes and records with Sharon and Anjani when he could be utilizing the Webb Sisters and Jennifer Warnes more. A too bad he uses cheesy synth and electric guitar sounds in his recent music when he could go back to traditional ethnic instrumentation...or at least take notes from Johnny Cash and Tom Waits on how to write cool music when you're old. Cohen is the best poet around but he needs musical help.
