"Slow Down" lyrics

We were never made to sprint
This is not a rushed race
Who are you racing?

We were never made to sprint
It was always a pilgrimage
Who have you been racing?

Why the hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry?

Who have you been racing?

I hear the Father say tonight
"Who have you been racing?"

Slow down
Slow down

There is room to smell the flowers along the way

Slow down

I wanna observe all the beauty along the way

Slow down
Slow down
Slow down

I never put you in a hurry
You did that to yourself

So, slow down

I never needed you to hurry

Slow down

I never needed you to finish first

Slow down

You can take a breath now, baby

Slow down

See: we're not made to sprint

We're not made to sprint
It's a pilgrimage
You won't let us lose heart

We're not made to sprint
It's a pilgrimage
You won't let us lose heart

We're not made to sprint
It's a pilgrimage
You won't let us lose heart

We're not made to sprint
It's a pilgrimage
You won't let us lose heart

Slow down
Slow down
Slow down
Slow down
