Slow Down {By Helen Gleason}

Slow down and stop your hurry,

Take your time, for life will wait.
Smell the flowers, hear the birds.
Even if it makes you late.

Let your eyes feast on the beauties,
Let God touch you as you stroll.
As you view His great creation
Let His message fill your soul.

Slow down, and take time to listen,
You’ll have joy as your reward.
The sky of blue, the sea that glistens
All are miracles of the Lord.

Walk in gratitude and wonder
Finding pleasures ever new.
The blessings of our great Creator
Made for us to daily view.

Slow down, take it not for granted
All this beauty ‘round we share.
But know that all of Nature’s beauty
Speak of God’s great love and care.
