Slowly
Avalon's 'Slowly' is a reflective Christian song about personal transformation and surrender. The lyrics describe a person who feels distant from God and acknowledges their need for change. They ask God to remind them of the meaning of humility and to remove their defenses. The song emphasizes that God's love is real and that He works patiently, slowly breaking down walls and turning the person around. It speaks of learning to live and love through God's presence and grace. The overall message is one of hope and trust in God's gentle, persistent work in a believer's life.
Maybe it's been too long for me
Maybe I'm too far gone
I'm not looking for sympathy
But I know something's gotta be wrong
Remind me now what it means to kneel
Get me out of the way
I'm learning still that your love is real
You've proven it's not a charade
I don't know how much I can take
Mighty fences are slipping away
You slowly break me down
You slowly turn me around
I'm learning how to live
I'm learning how to love
Now that You're here slowly showing me how
How do You say the things You say?
Do You really think I can change?
You love me with so much abandon
And You move in me with such grace
I am finally coming awake
Mighty fences are fading away
You slowly break me down
You slowly turn me around
I'm learning how to live
I'm learning how to love
Now that You're here slowly showing me
What I would be if I never let you in
What I would be if I am giving up my skin
What I would be if I let You in
You slowly break me down
You slowly turn me around
You slowly break me down
you slowly turn me around
I'm learning how to live
I'm learning how to love
Now that You're here slowly showing me how
