Simpler Time

I wanna get back to a simpler time
When we saw things in a different light
Even the choice between wrong and right was cut and dry, black and white
I wanna get back to a simpler day
When we didn’t share everything we’d say
It was easier to draw the line
I wanna get back to a simpler time

Now we water down theology
Make it all about you and me
Pick and choose how we want to live
Dilute the truth so we don’t offend

I wanna get back to a simpler time
When we saw things in a different light
Even the choice between wrong and right was cut and dry, black and white
I wanna get back to a simpler day
When we didn’t share everything we’d say
It was easier to draw the line
I wanna get back to a simpler time

You paid much too high a price
For us to sleepwalk through this life
For a broken and a lost generation
I wanna do my part in reaching the nations

I wanna get back to a simpler time
When we saw things in a different light
Even the choice between wrong and right was cut and dry, black and white
I wanna get back to a simpler day
When we didn’t share everything we’d say
It was easier to draw the line
I wanna get back to a simpler time

You paid much too high a price
For us to sleepwalk through this life
