Simple Things is a 2003 album by pop singer Amy Grant. It was Grant's first secular album (while containing Christian themes) in six years, the previous one being 1997's Behind the Eyes. Since then, she had divorced her husband of 19 years, Gary Chapman, and had married country music singer Vince Gill. Although the album did not see the pop success of its predecessors, it still made the Top 30 of the pop chart, and spawned a Top 40 Adult Contemporary chart hit, "Simple Things."
