Wisdom’s Prize

In my life I’ve reached the place where I’ve experienced much of grace

Today my kids are where I was, they have questions, all abuzz

Wisdom learned is now applied, God’s truth is tested, and it’s tried

Now to pass on wisdom’s prize, this freedom that I’ve realized

2 Cor 12:9 ~ Eccl 1:17-18 ~ Josh 4:6 ~ Prov 3:13 ~ Rev22:6 ~ Ps 18:30 ~ Col 2:2-3

That I’ve been freed from every sin and all the doubt that comes within

That all my life is in God’s plan, each challenge here helps me to stand

My failures are not happenstance, for in the ashes we now dance

For every broken part of me God’s light shines through and helps me see

Rom 6:22 ~ Eph 1:11; 6:13 ~ 2 Cor 12:10 ~ Ps 19:12 ~ Ps 147:3 ~ Ps 51:17

And now I’m looking on ahead, walking where the scripture said

Mindful that my followers grow, my footprints point the way they go

Lest I misstep and lead astray and take them off the narrow way

I consecrate my heart to be, Lord, may I stumble into Thee

1 Thes 2:12 ~ Rom 15:1 ~ 1 Cor 11:1 ~ 1 Cor 9:27 ~ Rom 14:21 ~ John 17:19
