Slow me down Lawd. Ah's a goin' too fast;
Ah can't see mah brother when he's walkin' past.
Ah miss a lot a good things,
Ah miss a lot a' good things day by day;
Ah don't know a blessing when it comes mah way

Slow me down, Lawd
Ah wants to see more o' the things that's good for me.
A little less o' me an' a little more a' You.
Ah wants the heavinly atmosphere to trickle through.

Let me help a brothuh when the goin's rough,
When folks work together it ain't so tough;
Slow me down, Lawd, so ah can talk with some a Yo angels.
Slow me down to a walk. Slow me down.
