Reaching arms, clutching hands
Goals just beyond our grasp
Storing treasures here on earth
That can never last
Run in place, arrive nowhere
A race that's never won
When eyes are on an earthly prize
They cannot see the Son
Slow it down, Oh slow it down
Can't you see God's ways
In His eyes a wealthy man
Is a man who prays
Slow it down, Oh slow it down
The fast life takes it's toll
It takes time to renew a mind
And to refresh a soul
| |
Carry such a heavy load
Of things we've been told
Lies of what makes up a man
Lies the world has sold
Spin it faster, keep it going
Never any stopping
Fearing if we take some time
The plates will all start dropping
Slow it down, Oh slow it down
'Cause where your treasure is
There your heart is found
