God Grants Me His Wisdom
God grants me His wisdom, without defilement
But so pure along sanctification’s fulfillment
Truly teaching me about His cleansing from sinfulness-detriment
Completely saving me from hell’s punishment…
…For my redeemed soul’s eternal settlement!
God grants me His wisdom, without turmoil
But so peaceable along spirituality’s oil
Truly guiding me toward restoration from weariness-spoil
Constantly refreshing me from labor’s coil…
…For my surrendered servanthood’s joyful toil!
God grants me His wisdom, without rudeness
But so gentle along charity’s kindness
Truly instilling in me His forgiveness from iniquity-wickedness
Cheerfully unloading me from hatred’s heaviness…
…For my sincere testimony’s vibrant brightness!
God grants me His wisdom, without terror
But so merciful along patience’s ardor
Truly instructing me with His principles from shame-dishonor
Carefully upholding me from fears’ horror…
…For my earnest prayerfulness’ dedicated fervor!
God grants me His wisdom, without damage
But so good along fruitfulness’ package
Truly imparting to me His grace from vanity-damage
Compassionately blessing me from curses’ disadvantage…
…For my faithful stewardship’s mighty courage!
God grants me His wisdom, without partiality
But so fair along judgment’s authority
That has illumined me thru His holiness from justice-infirmity
Circumspectly leading me from unrighteousness’ falsity…
…For my favored choices’ heavenly priority!
God grants me His wisdom, without hypocrisy
But so honest along truth’s supremacy
Truly enlightening me His Scriptures from ignorance-secrecy
Clearly transforming me from imperfection’s deficiency…
…For my Christian walk’s virtuous persistency!
*Colossians 3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom...
