Editor’s Note: This gospel-inspired song from my youth reminds me of the days the world’s awareness of social justice were dawning. It was used, as so many songs of the day, as a rallying cry – who knows for what? But over time, these kinds of songs make me wonder if artists like Mayfield planted a seed in our souls for the work so many of my generation now do. When I heard it in the coffee shop the other day, I went home and downloaded it on my ITunes and played it about 30 times in a row.
Favorite lyric: “There ain’t no room for the hopeless sinner who would hurt all mankind just to save his own”
