Second Verse
At
the tender age, of eighteen years, Solomon knelt to pray
He blessed the Lord of heaven and earth, and asked some-thing that day
For help to be a good king, a servant on the throne.
So God greatly blessed him that day, the wisest ever known!
To Chorus
Third Verse
But Solomon, he couldn't hold back, he couldn't keep from sin
He had to have so many wives, he had to have every-thing
But with each choice he fell away, fell further from the Lord
Till what was left was vanity--the wisdom of this world!
To Chorus
Fourth Verse
At
the end of his life, old Solomon, he finally came around
He finally saw, that God's wisdom, is more than just profound
It's walking with God, obeying Him, asking Him what to do
And in the end, deciding that, God's way is tried and true!
To Chorus
