    Rosemary's Blessing: 

    Slow me down, Lord; I am going too fast,

    I can’t see my brother as he goes past;

    I miss a lot of good things day by day,

    I don’t know blessings when they come my way.

     

    Slow me down, Lord so I can see

    More of the things that are good for me;

    A little less of me, a mile more of you,

    Let Heavenly atmosphere trickle thru,

     

    Let me help a brother when the going’s rough,

    When folks work together, things aren’t so tough;

    Slow me down, Lord; so that I can talk

    With more of your angels … slow me down to a walk.
