Slow and Steady Wins the Race

Oh, friend have patience
be not in haste
Lord, grant you vision
You, so well placed

Sing choir of angels
Lift spirits high
Build to crescendo
The hour is nigh

Up the hill you shall proceed
to the thing you want, you need
Do not lament your lack of pace
Slow and steady wins the race

Search not wi'agression
Let your ego speak
Passive attraction
is not weak

In time you will wait no more
it will soon come through your door
Just relax, enjoy the chase
Slow and steady wins the race

So now have patience
friend, i beseech
Lord, grant you company
Lengthen your reach

And may your days be filled with love
That, friend, you are worthy of
The time will come to play your ace
Slow and steady wins the race

Home (Here in the Westcountry)

Well I've been down to New York
and I've been down to Rome
and I've been down to Chinatown
but none of them felt like home

Well I've been to Barcelona
and seen the stadium
But it's down here this time of year
that I have the most fun

Well I've been down to New York
and I've been down to Rome
and I've been down to Chinatown
but none of them felt like home

So home, that's the place for me
Home, that's where I want to be

I've found my way to the USA
and seen all they have there
well the streets are meaner, the grass isn't greener
so baby why should I care?


Well Paris has its boulevards
and its avenues
Amsterdam is beatiful
Berlin too

But Exeter cathedral
can not be outdone
and oh! the feel in Freedom Fields
in the summer sun


So home, that's the place for me
Home, that's where I want to be

Well all the way from Helston
way on up to Frome
Yeah that's my home

So home, that's the place for me
Home, that's where I want to be

Home, that's the place for me
Yeah home, here in the westcountry
