Half The Way Home Lyrics

Do you ever feel like sometimes you just want to make time stand still
so you can photograph that moment and live it again and again?
But the years just seem to roll on like a fast train on its way
And you try to make it slow down a little, but it’s moved on to another day

Moving faster than before
Speed of light I can’t ignore

We try and make the best of every day,
but sometimes things don’t turn out our way
Slow down, invest in what’s real
There’s no time clock on heaven’s field

Every second means much more
than the one I lived before
(I gotta get it back)
Time is much more precious than gold
Take His hand, let Him take hold

Leave your mistakes on the table, ‘cause the table will be cleaned
Like a long forgotten dream
Celebrate the moment, it will never come again
Make the best of every moment until the time that we ascend

I’m finally at peace with myself
I’m on my way to the Son
I can slow down, there’s no reason to run
I’m half the way home
I’m half the way home

I try to teach my kids a lesson that time is a precious thing
Tell them, “One day you will ask yourself, ‘What message do I bring?’
And while you’re out there dancing in a world that’s grown ice-cold,
bring the message of the Savior before you get too old”

Time is much more precious than gold
Take His hand, let Him take hold
Don’t look back, can’t change a thing
Live the truth, live for the King

I’m finally at peace with myself
I’m on my way to the Son
I can slow down, there’s no reason to run
I’m half the way home
Half the way home

Moving faster than before
Speed of light I can’t ignore

Half the way home

Time is much more precious than gold
Take His hand, let Him take hold
Don’t look back, can’t change a thing
Live the truth, live for the King
