Works of Just Council<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A doctrine that can only demonstrate reaches the mind and halts at its threshold. A song goes deeper and stays longer \u2014 which is why communities have always entrusted to it what they did not wish to forget. This section gathers the works of Just Council: texts written to be sung, in a metre that a collective voice can carry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They are not illustrations to the essays. They carry the same doctrine in another register: the hymn speaks of building in defiance of mockery, the song of reconciliation of faithfulness in trial, the aviation hymn of trust along the whole chain of responsibility. Each work has a performance note \u2014 metre, rhyme, structure \u2014 because a text written to be sung is a craft, not an inspiration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n
\n\n

Hymn of the Mocked<\/strong> \u2014 nine stanzas about a nation that was laughed at in every century, and that answered with building, not revenge. Read the work<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Song of Reconciliation<\/strong> \u2014 a sister to the Hymn, on Proverbs 17:17: a brother is born for adversity. Read the work<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

No One Flies Alone<\/strong> \u2014 a rock anthem for the Polish Air Force University in D\u0119blin; Just Culture at its source. Read the work<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n

Song of the Time of the Sick<\/strong> \u2014 a song of help in need, on Proverbs 13:12, a sister to the Parable of the Two Clocks: the time of the sick as medicine, truth as brotherhood. Read the work<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
