SIMPLE GIFTS
TIS A GIFT TO BE SIMPLE,
TIS A GIFT TO BE FREE,
TIS A GIFT TO COME DOWN WHERE WE OUGHT TO BE.
AND WHEN WE FIND OURSELVES IN OUR PLACE JUST RIGHT
WE WILL BE IN THE VALLEY OF LOVE AND DELIGHT.
WHEN TRUE SIMPLICITY IS GAINED,
TO BOW AND TO BEND WE WILL NOT BE ASHAMED,
TO TURN, TO TURN WILL BE OUR DELIGHT,
TILL BY TURNING, TURNING WE COME 'ROUND RIGHT.
