This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
GIVE ME YOUR HAND
Aaron Strumpel
VERSE 1:
Give me your hand and we'll walk, walk down together
Lift up your hands and we'll sing, sing here together
CHORUS:
How good it is to know you God, How lovely is... your Bride
How blessed we are... to have... each other
You hold us all close...by your side
VERSE 2:
Come with me now and we'll dance, dance here together
Lift up your heart and we'll dream, dream here together
BRIDGE:
There's none to poor, too dirty, too broken
Too naked, too stupid, too drunken, to be
Thrown outside His love!

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
This song is really unusual in a good way. I love how honest Enter the Worship Circle is. The band's name is so appropriate because it seems like they're just a bunch of friends who publish all their songs. I think that's how it is.
