WISDOM CALLS

The lips of Wisdom speak what is true
All the words of her mouth are just
She calls out with understanding
Hers is a voice you can trust

To the discerning, all of her words are right
They are faultless to those who have knowledge
Choose her instruction instead of silver or gold
For Wisdom deserves honor and homage

Wisdom dwells together with Prudence
She knows how to avoid distress
She possesses knowledge and discretion
To help you choose what is best

Counsel and Judgement belong to Wisdom
She hates arrogance, perverse speech and pride
By Wisdom, Kings reign and Princes govern
Riches and Honor are by her side

Wisdom walks in the way of righteousness
Along straight paths that are just
Bestowing wealth on those who love her
Making treasures full, for all who trust

The Lord brought forth Wisdom, as the first of His great works
She was anointed before the world began
She was there when God set the Heavens in place
When there were no oceans or sand

Blessed are those who keep her ways
Listen to her instruction…do not ignore it
Blessed is the man who listens to Wisdom
When she calls, take heed…Wisdom implores it!
