Analysis of The Slower Way
The lessons of God are quite frequent.
They come whenever they come.
So, try to be real diligent
And wait for lessons to come!
God usually teaches quite slowly
To give us the time to learn.
All things He teaches are holy
And things that all should yearn.
Be willing to get what He teaches
Because if you fail be sure
That God will repeat what He preaches
To help your faith endure!
