Wisdom Cries by Janet Martin © 2009 Her voice cries out into the street Oh, do not make a fool's retreat Or scoff at Wisdom's faithful voice Or scorn those who make her their choice Do you hear her plaintive cry? Will she like the wind pass by? Returning void at your request As you in foolish knowledge, jest Turn and heed her wise reproof Why do you choose to stand aloof? Or disregard her cherished hand Mocking her pleading reprimand Where will you run, how will you flee? When strong winds of calamity Tear away your fickle shroud Will you find comfort in your crowd? Oh lend an ear to wealth untold A treasure dear, more pure than gold Do not heed temptation's voice Precious one, make God your choice Yes, Wisdom cries into the night Longs to draw you to her light Will you from darkness turn away And heed her pleading voice today? |
