Chorus
In life you got to stop, and smell the roses
Stoop, and smell the roses

So you don't burn out, so you don't burn out
Take the time to stop, and smell the roses
Stop, and smell the roses

So you don't burn out, so you don't burn out

Verse 1

Even Jesus took a break, in the Lord He did rest
It refreshed His Spirit within, to keep Him from being a mess
He refueled, He refueled, with God

He refueled with the Word of God

Verse 2

How wise to listen to Jesus, just like the Apostles did
Who took a boat away from all, to reflect on what He said
The sandals they wore or the shoes today,

Still have the same effect
For followers of Christ get drained, their energy level gets sapped
time to rest, time to rest


Repeat Chorus
Verse 3 (x2)

So to win this race, you need to change your pace
Take quiet time with Him
A solitary place, will help you win this race

So refuel, stay strong, don't sin
You can change your pace, see the stress fall from your face


Bridge
A vacation is just a thought, maybe walk around a lake
Watching the sun rise, not much energy will this take

Bring Christ with you to ball games, or at the tennis court
The golf course or the gym, be a witness while in the park
Bike the trails and you will find, the stress will melt away

So take time to refuel, to rest with Christ is okay

Repeat Chorus
