My friends I pray the best for you
God's mercies and His Grace
His wisdom I pray you covet
Nothing can take it's place


Through His wisdom we learn to live
To behave the way we should
To love beyond human understanding
To treat others as Jesus would


Through His wisdom we learn to play
Have a good time without sin
We learn to value His world
This world we have to live in




Through His wisdom we learn to parent
To bring our children up in His word
So they won't stray too far away
From the truths they've always heard


Through His wisdom we learn to be spouses
To complement each other in every way
To uplift and to bring stability
In each other's lives each day


Through His wisdom we learn that Glory
Awaits us at the end of the path
The path of righteousness is ours to keep
If we have Jesus in our heart


He died so we could have life
Starting today...right now
In this world with all it's perils
His word will show us how
