Margaret Becker Simple House Lyrics

Simple House Lyrics

This house is a holy house

Always under construction

People come
in

Looking for truth

Or just their own reflection

Depending
on what they find

They pat my back or they speak their mind

I wanna
live in a simple house

I wanna live

In a simple house



CHORUS

I wanna live in a simple house

I wanna live

I wanna
live in a simple house

I wanna live in a simple house



This
house looks the best

When it's not cluttered with opinions

When
only the words from the Landlord's mouth

Have absolute dominion

From His lips, His lips alone

I want to furnish my humble home

I
wanna live in a simple house

I wanna live



CHORUS(2X)



I want wisdom in the walls

Understanding will weatherproof

I want love to be the theme

From the basement to the roof

Not
enough room for second hand news

Can't build this house on human how
to's

I wanna see His touch in every room

I wanna know this house is
built in truth

I wanna live in a simple house

I wanna live



CHORUS



(repeat chorus and fade)
