Slow Down, Please
by Josiah Queen

Album: Mt. Zion

This living room ain't much to see, and it goes to show
The way you keep your house, reflects the insides of your soul
Quarter past noon He's on the way
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 heart 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

Oh my child listen now
I don't care at all about
If the floors are swept or if the glass has fingerprints
A thousand things you could do know
None of them will care about
All I want is to be here with you right now
