Slow And Steady Wins The Race Lyrics

Slow And Steady Wins The Race lyrics

all the way to grandma's house 

i stayed on the narrow path 

but my brother wandered off 

deep into the woods 

bitten twice by rattle snakes 

tangled up in poison oak 

he fell down and broke his legs 

into a great ravine 

when i arrived at grandma's house 

she made us tea and cake 

she asked me where my brother was 

i said i don't know and ate 

when i get to heaven i'll be greeted warmly 

surrounded by angels 

as jesus takes my hand 

i'll receive a mansion 

on the river jordan 

and a crown of diamonds 

for a race well run 

i won't ever lock my doors 

i will trust my neighbors 

confident that they deserve 

to be there in heaven, too
