A simple man of simple dreams
He built His life on ordinary things
Worked the land as if it were His friend
His words live with me to the end
Give more than you have taken
Love most the ones forsaken

(Chorus)
Simple heart beat in me
Until I can see
A simple heart will set me free
To let extraordinary things
Flow through this ordinary
Heart of simplicity

It was a simple thing for a boy like me
To pray a prayer and then believe
Those were simple times
How times change
Boys grow up and life complicates
I am older, but am I wiser
Has my simple heart grown colder

(Chorus)

He was a simple man of simple means
The simple truth is that He was the King
He leads us down the narrow way
That is only seen with a child's faith

(Chorus)
