God slow me down
I'm like a river running
Pressed to the ground
I feel it overcoming
I'm on my knees
I'm incomplete
This is a great unknown
Love is a long and narrow road
Come chase this heart of stone
I need a future not my own
Your spirit groans
Where all my words are ceasing
Can't do this alone
Lord help my unbelieving
My poverty
I'm incomplete
This is a great unknown
Love is a long and narrow road
Come chase this heart of stone
I need a future not my own
Not my own
We see the start but you see the end
We see in part but your love sees everything
We plant the seeds but you make them grow
We're building a house, you're building a home
This is the great unknown
Love is a long and narrow road
Come chase this heart of stone
I need a future not my own
This world is not my home
I still have miles and miles to go
Come break this heart of stone
I need a future not my own
