Life in the slow lane

Life in the slow lane
What's your hurry?
Slow down....take your time
You'll get there....in time!
Get off the highway
Take the slow lane
Enjoy what God has given you
You'll be thankful too

Go around the other way
There's no need to rush today
Slow down, stop sometimes and see
You'll remember, "God's been good to me!"

Life in the slow lane
What's your hurry?
Slow down....take your time
You'll get there....in time!
Get off the highway
Take the slow lane
Enjoy what God has given you
You'll be thankful too

Make up your own detour
Slowing down will help you renew
Find out more about the places you visit
It will mean more to you when you remember it

Life in the slow lane
What's your hurry?
Slow down....take your time
You'll get there....in time!
Get off the highway
Take the slow lane
Enjoy what God has given you
You'll be thankful too

Too many people in a hurry to save a few seconds
        only to waste that time later in disgust
It's time to slow down and see what awesome
        and wonderful things God has given us!
