[Verse 1] “The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.” “I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.” When there were no depths— Wisdom was there. Before the mountains were settled— Wisdom was there. “Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight.” [Verse 2] “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.” “Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom: I am understanding; I have strength.” By wisdom kings reign. By understanding princes decree justice. “She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.” [Hook] WISDOM STILL CRIES. “Unto you, O men, I call; and my voice is to the sons of man.” WISDOM STILL CRIES. “My mouth shall speak truth.” [Verse 3] “The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation, and condemn them:” “For she came from the utmost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon;” “And, behold, a greater than Solomon is here.” “The LORD hath created a new thing in the earth, A woman shall compass a man.” [Turn] “Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the LORD revealed?” “The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.” “Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.” [Bridge] “Therefore said he unto them, Every scribe which is instructed unto the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old.” [Instrumental — Guitar Carries the Turn] [Final] “O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God!” “How unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!” “Known unto God are all his works from the beginning of the world.” “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.” JESUS IS THE LORD
