Lyrics Simple Gifts - Mormon Tabernacle Choir feat. Jerold D. Ottley

'Tis the gift to be simple, 'tis the gift to be free
'Tis the 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 sha'nt be ashamed
To turn, turn will be our delight
Till by turning, turning we come round right
'Tis the gift to be simple, 'tis the gift to be fair
'Tis the gift to wake and breathe the morning air
And every day to walk on the path we choose
'Tis the gift that we pray we may ne'er come to lose
When true simplicity is gained
To bow and to bend we sha'n't be ashamed
To turn, turn will be our delight
Till by turning, turning we come round right
'Tis the gift to be loving, 'tis the gift best of all
Like a quiet rain it blesses when it falls
And if we have the gift we will truly believe
That 'tis better to give than it is to receive
When true simplicity is gained
To bow and to bend we sha'n't be ashamed
To turn, turn will be our delight
Till by turning, turning we come round right
'Tis the gift to be simple, 'tis the gift to be simple
'Tis the gift to be simple, to be free
