'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 gain'd,
To bow and to bend we shan't be asham'd,
To turn, turn will be our delight,
Till by turning, turning we come round right.
These lyrics came to mind today when I was offered lunch and later brought apples by the woman who cleans and makes coffee daily at the seminary (I can't remember her name suddenly!). Her generocity and thoughtfulness touched me.
