Slow Down, Please Songtext
von Josiah Queen

This living room ain′t much to see, and it goes to show
The way you keep your house reflects the inside of your soul
Quarter past noon, He's on the way
And all that I can think about is that I′m not okay

But He walks right in
With kindness in His eyes and grace in every step
What will He say
When He takes a look around and sees that
I couldn't clean this mess I've made?

All the things You do for me
Are good and sweet, but slow down, please
All those things will always be
But sit right here, come and see
There′s not a better place to go
To rest your hard and weary soul than at My feet
All the things You do for me
Are good and sweet, but slow down, please


Sometimes I sit and I wonder how
Cleaning up my act is all that I can think about
I need a Savior and I need Him now
I′m tired of playing God and trying to save myself

But He walks right in
With kindness in His eyes and grace in every step
What will He say
When He takes a look around and sees that
I couldn't clean this mess I′ve made?

All the things You do for me
Are good and sweet, but slow down, please
All those things will always be
But sit right here, come and see
There's not a better place to go
To rest your hard and weary soul than at My feet
All the things You do for me
Are good and sweet, but slow down, please

Oh, my child, listen now
I don′t care at all about
If the floor's swift or if the glass has fingerprints
A thousand things you get there now
None of them I care about
All I want is to be here with you right now


All the things You do for me
Are good and sweet, but slow down, please
All those things will always be
But sit right here, come and see
There′s not a better place to go
To rest your hard and weary soul than at My feet
All the things You do for me
Are good and sweet, but slow down, please
