Dealings of Your Mind

You turn your head
To the side
If you can't deal with
How things are going in your mind

Then you turn your head
The other way
When you're tired
Of looking at it that way

Don't know if you see it
But things aren't so far
As you think they are
If you just slow it down some

You turn your head aside
Too much you've tried
But to deal with this lovely life
Step it back in your mind

No clever solutions
Can fill an empty
But empty becomes full
When you just slow it down some

Slow it down some
Slow it down son
Let's just talk and take our time

You turn your head aside
Too much you have going on
But to see the lovely life
Step it back some, all words gone

Slow it down some
Slow it down son
Let's just talk and take our time

Just need a new perspective
Knowing that
I can't just hide

One side sits crazy
Other side is lazy
I say neither

Just slow it down some
Slow it down son
It's okay to play

Oh, I love how God works in my heart (and in ours) so relentlessly. He will wisper, and He will always be waiting, and He will continue to speak. In this song, He's been clearing some the things in my life and heart and taking His time with it. He is so patient. It's most evident when I realize how long He's been wispering something to me and it sometimes takes a while for things to really be rooted in me. He just wants me to be still, listen, and love Him. When He has man's heart (speaking of our race), man can be used far more effectively. When our heart becomes God's heart, He is truly please.
