about

We were speeding in a 20mph zone. Newly engaged, excited & in love. Wrapped up in the search for our first home we were going too fast and making stupid mistakes. Slow down's soulful hook drives home a warning to gently press the brake pedal & seek Divine wisdom so you won’t be forced to slam the brakes. You're story may be different but the message is the same... God wants to guide your steps, but will you slow down so you can hear His voice?

lyrics

Chorus
Slow right down
Don't you wanna hear His voice
Before you make a choice?
Slow right down
You're going at 70 in a 20 mile zone

Choosing a house to live in
Choosing a bed to lie in
How many rooms? Is there parking for Two?
How close to the M25?
But have you asked Him a question?
Are you following His directions?
Are you running head?
Have you chosen your bed?
Now you’re asking for His approval.

chorus
Slow right down
Don't you wanna hear His voice
Before you make a choice
Slow right down
You're going at 70 in a 20 mile zone

Choosing your vocation?
But have you thought about salvation?
Did you ask Him before?
Or just run through that door?
Now you're praying for His precious blessing
But if you'd only ask a question
You could be sure or His direction
To go forward in first
Or put it in reverse
Or just wait till the next instruction

Chorus
Slow right down
Don't you wanna hear His voice
Before you make a choice
Slow right down
You're going at 70 in a 20 mile zone x2

Bridge
Junction Jeremiah 29
let's me know I can trust You
Cause Your ways are higher
Your plans are better than mine
Yes they are
Junction Jeremiah 29
let's me know I can trust You
Cause Your ways are higher
You've got salvation in mind
So please remind me to

Chorus
Slow right down
Don't you wanna hear His voice
Before you make a choice
Slow right down
You're going at 70 in a 20 mile zone
