I recall watching Saturday Night Live and Dylan singing this song…it blew my mind; I remember people didn’t like that he became a born again Christian…..but that’s their problem……I serve the LORD, praise Jesus !!! ✝️

I am 65yrs. old and bought Brave by Nicole Nordeman when it first came out. My niece turned me on to it. I love this song. I love Bob Dylan and have been listening to his music since I was a teenager. The fact that he wrote this simply BLOWS me mind. As for me and my house, we have and always will serve the Lord. What a mighty God we serve! Thank you Jesus. My mom passed away this morning. She was 93yrs. It's because of her that I became a Christian! She is Home. I can't wait to see her again one day!!

I went to bed one night with the thought that I needed to get right with the Lord & become a man of faith. I woke up in the morning hearing this song on my radio alarm clock. Slow train had just been released & I thought that if Bob Dylan can humble himself before God then so can I!

[@purplesageblessings6393]

leonardoboy2 me too. I had just gotten born again and Dylan came out with this album. I thought, “wow, I’m in synch with the times. “

[@charlieleonardo]

Purple Sage Blessings that’s awesome to hear. At that time my experience with local churches & Christian book shops in terms of Bob Dylan’s 3 gospel/Christian albums was disappointing. They didn’t & wouldn’t stock these albums & fellow believers were critical of & judgemental about his testimony & his confession of faith. Additionally, many of his fans were enraged at the same time. Interesting to note that Jesus had the both the establishment & the worldly against Him also. I’d say this is when we know that we’re dealing with a true & genuine work of God when these things come against it!

[@shovelleator4738]

Was 16 when this came out and my older sister gave it to me on vinyl for that birthday . That combination of Knopfler and the organ with Dylan’s lyrics captivated me and was a catalyst in my journey which to this day , 32 years of marriage and four children later embraces serving Him. Dylan can never know how pivotal his art has been in my walk. I may not be forever young but I am forever grateful !

@@marianm7468 I've heard similar things and I've had my own suspicions about Bobby Zimmerman as well. One of my favorite sayings, " Even a broken clock is correct twice each day. " may be applicable here. Though he may be aligned with the fallen one, the overall wisdom in his poetry is present. " It may be the devil or it may be the LORD .... ya gotta serve somebody. " If his choice is indeed the adversary , his wisdom ends with the poetry, in my opinion. My service is to our Heavenly Father , the All Mighty Creator.

One of my favorite sayings all my life was you can’t be in good with God and the Devil you gotta choose! A young friend of mine at work said to me “ Bob Dylan wrote a song about that, so that’s how I discovered this beautiful song. I have the record and I listen to it in my car. I’ve always thought that music is the best way that God has to communicate with us.

[@jimmystuckeysongs3859]

A classic example of the songwriting prowess of Bob Dylan. He is "The Poet", His given nickname, but for me its his lyrics that cut through the noise like a razor sharp double edged sword. His understanding of songwriting goes way beyond the higher levels of the craft. He understands the human condition so well, his words are like missiles aimed right at the heart of it. Definitely a must listen for anyone interested in the craft of songwriting. Cheers...!

I have listened hundreds of beautiful songs by Bob Dylan. Every song has its own mellowness. If I let allow to choose only one song to play, I will choose - Gotta Serve Somebody. This song made me addiction of Bob Dylan in late 80s.

This man's music hit me in 1965 when I was 17...on the road listening to him ever since.

[@stevenL4U]

Ahhhhhhhhh, this is exactly how music should sound. ✌🏻

[@michaelgoldstein3701]

SAW him when the album ws released - this song made the show ! With the greatest bu singers in the church of life for ones ears and heart ! Gotta love that Dylan ! And humility that so many don't get !WE serve someboby -thou art G-d ! He put it in your hands brothers and sista's

[@agya8194]

This is amazing. That's why Bob got his First Grammy award for this song.

My first Bob Dylan album in 1987. I bought it because of "man gave names" and wasn't sure what I was going to find. Then I heard this and was hooked on the spot forever... What's most mesmerising about Dylan is this incredible energy he puts in his singing. Another element worth mentioning is that Dylan's writing is very accessible to non-native english speakers like I am (I'm french). There's always a couple of words in any song I can easily remember and relate to. It may sound quite obvious but it doesnt goes the same with Neil Young or Leonard Cohen... Dylan just reaches your soul like no other. He is my favourite artist of all time.

This is such an Awesome song

This song once reinforced my faith, thank you, Mr Dylan! Happily married with a child on the way!

_Maybe livin' in another country, under another name_ For me that line, its delicious rhythm cascading up and then down, along with its subject matter, along with its notes, is by far the greatest pleasure in the song. Golden.

[@jarikuukasjarvi7824]

Whole album is pure gold

[@vowelsounds6312]

The fruit of the spirit... love, joy, peace come only from within. Unrelated to fame or fortune. Bob said it right.

I recommend u serve someone that adores you regardless of your past and shortcomings

[@petegilgan6217]

The other two 'Christian' albums can't hold a candle to this. Great songs, great feel, great production (unlike many Dylan albums) and a great band. One of his very best.

[@sandrafrench7646]

Yes it's a very special song I got bad news today my kidneys have stopped and the Dr said I would have to go on dialysis or ride it out I went with my mother in law for several years for her treatments and they were hard on her so either way I'm going to die soon. My son told me to look up this song and listen to it because I don't have any ideal how to think about passing

[@imannonymous7707]

Im not going to trash this or any album im just happy to hear them on you tube and support bob, one of my biggest influences. Thank you bob

[@robertlamkin5648]

Why need to trash anyone? It would be as inappropriate as a born-again Christian cueing up a Led Zeppelin tune on here, because they like the music, then trashing the band for what they supposedly are into; and, trashing their fans for being okay with the rumors.

Gee, thanks.

Yet another shining example of poetry and music blended for our souls from a true master of his craft.

[@janetwalton2194]

You have to serve somebody, it’s your choice, it’s your call. Get smart, it is coming back to you. Do the right thing, nothing like an honest person.

Hello Dear, it’s nice meeting you on here.

Humanities is in the hands of a glorious kind of practionee to help us when in distress. I know I always must lean on a friend when in need because this world of ours is too cruel to face alone.
