Stop the stampede...

Slow down  all your running..oh..why is it you  rush
Don't you know..that you're missing..you're missing so much?
The beauty and serenity and the calm gentle peace
Are awaiting your stillness ..oh give them release..

The clock's always ticking and the days always run
But there's always enough time to get your work done
Despite all of the madness and the whirlwinds you see
You can stop outside of this ratrace and truly be free

Slow down  all your running..oh..why is it you  rush
Don't you know..that you're missing..you're missing so much?
The beauty and serenity and the calm gentle peace
Are awaiting your stillness ..oh give them release..

Everything's a hurry and we're programmed this way
No one likes to be waiting..for it gets in the way
Of progress and power and that great financial stampede
So if you slow down your pulse ..they'll crush you with greed

Slow down  all your running..oh..why is it you  rush
Don't you know..that you're missing..you're missing so much?
The beauty and serenity and the calm gentle peace
Are awaiting your stillness ..oh give them release..

The greatest of giants in this world of ours today
Are those who keep squashing whatever gets in their way
But peace is always lacking and they keep on wanting more
Their power up is insufficient..for  they keep trying to score....

Slow down  all your running..oh..why is it you  rush
Don't you know..that you're missing..you're missing so much?
The beauty and serenity and the calm gentle peace
Are awaiting your stillness ..oh give them release..

With all this before us:  this racing for power.
We need in our persons,  some space and an hour
To replenish our beings: our souls and our minds;
Before the next whirlwind uproots and unwinds..

Slow down  all your running..oh..why is it you  rush
Don't you know..that you're missing..you're missing so much?
The beauty and serenity and the calm gentle peace
Are awaiting your stillness ..oh give them release..
