I wake up in the morning with the rising sun,
Thank the Lord above for another day begun,
I feel the breeze on my face,
the world bright and grand,
A simple man of the land with a heart full of sand,
I work on the farm,
from dawn till dusk Tending to the crops,
the livestock and the rust,
I find solace in the fields where nature's beauty rests,
God's creation around me,
it's the life I'm blessed,
Oh, I'm just a simple man with a heart pure and true,
Devoted to God, nature and the animals too,
I find peace in the soil,
the rivers and the trees,
A simple man of the land,
that's where my soul is free,
Sunset smoke paint in the sky,
canvas of colors,
A natural high,
in the quiet of the evening,
I take my rest,
grateful for the day,
feeling truly blessed,
When the stars come out I look above,
send a prayer for the ones I love For this simple light I wouldn't trade,
it's the fabric of the man that God has made,
Oh,
I'm just a simple man with a heart pure and true,
Devoted to God,
nature and the animals too,
I find peace in the soil,
the rivers and the trees,
A simple man of the land,
that's where my soul is free,
Oh, I'm just a simple man with a heart pure and true,
Devoted to God, nature and the animals too,
I find peace in the soil,
the rivers and the trees,
A simple man of the land,
that's where my soul is free,
Sometimes I wonder as I walk this land,
About the greater design the Creator's planned,
I may just be a speck in this vast expanse But in the simple life I've found my chance,
Oh, I'm just a simple man with a heart pure and true Devoted to God,
nature and the animals too,
I find peace in the soil,
the rivers and the trees,
A simple man of the land,
that's where my soul is free
