Jill Phillips Album: Writing on the Wall Track: Wisdom
Wisdom Lyrics
About the song: This song was inspired by the book of Proverbs and a bible study I was a part of in college. I had the most amazing teacher and he helped me learn to love Proverbs and the practicality of the information. Proverbs talks about desiring wisdom above riches and fame and how it is one of the most valuable things you can have. This is my ode to Proverbs and my own yearning for wisdom.
Lyrics: Humble yourself before the Almighty That's where you find true wisdom Make it your first step, make it your last thought Lying in bed when the day's done
Hear it calling out your name in the busy streets in the center of town Who will turn their face to truth and then live it out
Wisdom is greater than any fleeting Pleasure that money brings you Answers will come to those who pursue The pathway to life that few choose
Hear it calling out your name in the busy streets in the center of town Who will turn their face to truth and then live it out
Knowledge awaits you filling your arms With more than they ever could grasp Blessed are you who hunger for truth And keep your eyes fixed on what lasts
Hear it calling out your name in the busy streets in the center of town Who will turn their face to truth and then live it out
