Lyrics: Pete Sears
Music: Pete Sears
A new song, I think by Pete Sears, introduced by the David Nelson Band in September 2016.
Any help with the lyrics gratefull received.
Days of old, when we were young
And time stood still, through the mid-day sun
We'd love all day, through the cold, hard night
And find a way to stand and fight
In ancient days all wine and song
We marched to war, to right a wrong
But who can say where the real blame lay
And the [foremen] cry through the blood red [hay]
Oh take my hand, both young and old
And walk away when your blood runs cold
And try to find another way
To heal the [war] where dead men lay
When shadows fall and take you down
Hear their cry, and turn around
Ring the peal of bells, as only lovers can
Let's band together, and take a stand
So walk this land hand in hand
Just walk this land hand in hand
Just walk this land hand in hand
Love will grow throughout the land
So leave the man, [be hearty] land
Let's take her home, and save old [hand]
And spread the word from sea to sea
The waves are strong, but so are we
Then we grew old, and time flew by
There was not a [number], God knows we tried
Now the days grow near to the [reaper sign]
And we pass the [plate] with another [?]
In a thousand years when peace abounds
And the mighty guns will make no sound
When darkness hangs its head in shame
Well no more evil in his hand
So spread your seed where the rivers flow
When times are hard, let flowers grow
Try not to blame your fellow man
And walk this land hand in hand
So walk this land hand in hand
Just walk this land hand in hand
Just walk this land hand in hand
And peace and love throughout the land
Just walk this land hand in hand
Just walk this land hand in hand
Just walk this land hand in hand
And peace and love throughout the land
