Increasing lines upon my face

This load of wear and tear that I carry

Has taken a step or two from my pace

A life of curving highways

Everything around me racing by

It’s all getting away from me now

As I wait on the sunset sky

And I’ve been thinking about Jesus a lot more these days

Wondering if it’s too late to change my shady ways

I’m slowing down and growing tired

While the clouds above are turning gray

It’s got me thinking about Jesus more these days

There’s an old man on the street

In need of a helping hand

There was a day I would have passed him by

But these days I understand

For my eyes are much clearer now

There is so much more that I see

That lonely man twenty years from now

Could easily be me

And I’ve been thinking about Jesus a lot more these days

I see the world now as a wondrous display

No longer do I want to waste my life

And just throw it all away

For I’ve been thinking about Jesus more these days

I’ve learned to be more humble now

I find myself a lot more on my knees

I walk and talk with the lord above

And my mind seems more at ease

I once thought I could do it all

Now I’m running out of time

The mountains are getting taller

The harder I try to climb

It’s got me thinking about Jesus a lot more these days

For years I’ve been trapped in a worldly maze

But now my mind is breaking free

I’m looking above the haze

Because I’ve been thinking about Jesus a lot more these days
