Verse 1

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

Verse 2

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

Chorus

Slow down
Slow down
There is room to smell the flowers
Along the way

Chorus

Slow down
I wanna observe all the beauty
Along the way
Slow down

Chorus

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

Chorus

Slow down
I never needed you to hurry
Slow down
I never needed you to finish first

Chorus

Slow down
You can take a breath now baby
Slow down

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
