Reaching arms, clutching hands Goals just beyond our grasp Storing treasures here on earth That can never last
Run in place, arrive nowhere A race that's never won When eyes are on an earthly prize They cannot see the Son
Slow it down, Oh slow it down Can't you see God's ways In His eyes a wealthy man Is a man who prays Slow it down, Oh slow it down The fast life takes it's toll It takes time to renew a mind And to refresh a soul

Carry such a heavy load Of things we've been told Lies of what makes up a man Lies the world has sold
Spin it faster, keep it going Never any stopping Fearing if we take some time The plates will all start dropping
Slow it down, Oh slow it down 'Cause where your treasure is There your heart is found
