Christ centered songs written by Dan Simmons...the best Gospel and inspirational A.I. music on the internet!
"firesong" is the songwriting ministry of Dan Simmons Thanks for stopping by. It's my desire to faithfully share that which has been given to me. This website will be a sampling of recordings that I, along with family and friends, have done over past 45 years. There are over 600 original unpublished songs presented in demo form on this site. Special thanks go to my partners in music, my daughter Amber, son Ian and the guys of Single Heart (Gene, Bob, Chris, Marty and Tata) who joined me to sing praises to the Lord down through the years. I also wish to thank those co-writers and artists that have joined with me in developing new music the passed few years to share on this website. I'm now featuring AI (Artificial Intelligence) groups that I've developed to sing some of the songs. I hope it's evident to everyone... that though the melodies and harmonies, styles and singers may change... JESUS has always been and will always be...the Song! ...this music is one simple expression of a very thankful heart. (Dan is a retired firefighter and ordained minister)

Lyrics
I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of the world If it means that heaven I gain I'll give up all the riches this world could bring A fool in the eyes of the world But wise in the eyes of the King In the courts of the world I sought wisdom In the halls of men I sought fame The praises of men were my goal in life And success was the name of the game But I found my life knew no wisdom As I sat like a fool on its throne In the court of the King of the ages I was foolish, ashamed and alone I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of the world If it means that heaven I gain I'll give up all the riches this world could bring A fool in the eyes of the world But wise in the eyes of the King Now I've found peace and contentment Though a fool to the world I might be Now success means I can sit at the foot of His throne And life means forever for me Yes, I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of the world If it means that heaven I gain I'll give up all the riches this world could bring A fool in the eyes of the world But wise in the eyes of the King Yes, I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of the world If it means that heaven I gain I'll give up all the riches this world could bring A fool in the eyes of the world But wise in the eyes of the King A fool in the eyes of the world But wise in the eyes of the King
