The religious group the Shakers are now more famous for their furniture
than their worship music, but during their services they used to dance.
Simple Gifts has a similar tune to "Lord of the dance"
So this is for anybody who has had an epiphany through worship.


Code:
[COLOR=#0A0A0A][FONT=Roboto]'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 shan'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 best gift of all
Like a quiet rain it blesses where it falls
And with it we will truly believe
Tis better to give than it is to receive
When true simplicity is gained,
To bow and to bend we shan't be ashamed,
To turn, turn will be our delight,
Till by turning, turning we come 'round right.[/FONT][/COLOR]
