Simple Gifts
Shaker Hymn

lyrics

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 the place just right
Twill be in the valley of love and delight.

When true simplicity is gained,
To bow and to bend, we shan't be ashamed
Turn, turn will be our delight,
‘Til by turning, tuning we come round right
