The Band of Brothers: MP3s/Lyrics

• MP3 play whole song, hi-fi (broadband)
• MP3 play whole song, lo-fi (modem)

Note from Michael: Bruce Bailey brought this song (composed by Robert C. Amos) to us. Bruce heard the song on satellite radio and taught it to us. We loved it from the first, and it has become very popular with our audiences. When we contacted the author about gaining permission to record his song, we were delighted to discover that his ancestors came from Dansville, NY - our home town! We hope everyone who hears "One Beautiful Day" is inspired by its message of love.

Instrumentation: Bruce Bailey, lead vocal and guitar, Alan Fox: guitar and harmony vocal; Jamie Stevens: mandolin and harmony vocal; Michael Scott Smith: lead guitar and harmony vocal; Henry Robin: 12-string guitar and harmony vocal.

If we believe that we should make a new beginning

If we are sure that we can walk the path of love

If we decided to try and make this life worth living

Then we must look within as well as up above

And one beautiful day, we will awaken

To find that we all have shared the same dream

Then we shall rise in celebration

Eager to seek what we have seen

When we have broken all the heavy chains that bind us

When we can leave behind the hatred and the strife

When we rejoice in all the differences among us

Then we shall truly know the beauty of this life

And one beautiful day, we will awaken

To find that we all have shared the same dream

Then we shall rise in celebration

Eager to seek what we have seen.
