Great song. It could have fit nicely on either of the two albums. Mitch should sing more.

about
A single by The Walk.
lyrics
Have you done your deeds?
Did you plant the seeds of human kindness today?
Did you raise a cheer?
Did you drink your beer as the parade went away?
Well I can shake your hand and listen to the band
Or climb the highest mountain and try to understand
How blessed we are livin' in this land of freedom
Did you sacrifice to the gods of nice all you think and all you say?
Did you take the blame for all the pain and let your history decay?
Well I can shake your hand and listen to the band
Or climb the highest mountain and try to understand
How blessed we are livin' in this land of freedom
It's gotta take more than conscience
It's gotta take more than contracts to get around
There's something more than peace and love
There must be a man and wife
A God at life
Have you come around to the glory crown
Of the Son who brought liberty?
We knew the righteous One when we'd begun
And we should never look away
Well I can shake your hand and join the angel band
I can climb the highest mountain and try to understand
How blessed we are living in this land of freedom
