slow

Good morning…

She wrote me a simple email yesterday: “iAmSon’s ‘Slow Down’ song came to mind again, today, after your post. Enjoy!”

I had never heard the song before, so searched for it on YouTube. It’s quirky, with a choppy, methodic rhythm, the rhythm of bare feet slowly walking.

I thoroughly enjoyed the lyrics and the music video, a video created one year ago this month, entitled “‘Slow down’, by iAmSon – images for Lent.”

Might you also enjoy?

Lyrics

Slow down, where are you going
What’s so important that can’t wait
Tell me what are you seeking
What is it thats keeping you from
Bringing me your questions

All that you carry, all that you bury underneath
Just slow down, just slow down
And meet with me

Rest now, be in the present
Here in the blessings of today
Listen just for a moment
I am the only one with
Words to calm your worries

Focus your mind on Me, I am the way to perfect peace
Just slow down, just slow down
And meet with Me

Me

Why hurry, when you can walk with Me?
Why hurry, when you can walk with Me?
Why hurry, when you can walk with Me?
I’ll be the light to guide your feet

If you just slow down
Just slow down
And be with Me

******

My soul thirsts for God,

for the living God.

When can I go

and

meet with God?

– Psalm 42:2 (NIV)

Rest now. Be in the present. Slow down, just slow down, and meet with the living God.
