Analysis of Simple Love
Simple and true is
my love, Lord, for you,
You keep me in pace,
less I lose sight of Your grace.
Lover of my soul,
You are all I long for.
Compassionate, tender,
You fill me with wonder.
However my path may weave,
Your mercy is what I need,
for if darkness to You be light,
my tread will be a flight.
