Teach me to go slow, Lord..

Teach me to go slow, Lord
And learn to wait on you
Don't let me jump ahead
While wondering what to do.

Teach me to go slow, Lord
Each promise You'll fulfill-
You answer in Your time
And in Your perfect will.

Teach me to go slow, Lord
And only my anxious heart
Keep my eyes on you
And don't let the teardrops start.

Teach me to go slow, Lord
Reach out and take my hand
For I am deeply troubled
And I just don't understand.

Teach me to go slow, Lord
Take one day at a time
Don't let me fall but lead me on
To peaceful heights sublime.

Teach me to go slow, Lord
Please work this out for me
When all is right once more
Let me give praise to Thee.

Teach me to go slow, Lord
And help me see above
This dark cloud 'til I can gaze
Into Your face of Love.
