Precious Rubies
Expensive as expressed by the precious Scriptures
Explaining divine wisdom’s invaluable cost
Exclaiming virtuous woman’s priceless host…
…Exquisite rubies* own gems’ distinct blest features.
Excellently created through Providence might
Extremely durable against rigorous tests…
…Exceptional rubies empower man's faith-bests
Exposing the supreme Designer’s vibrant light.
* Proverbs 8:11 For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.
Proverbs 31:10 Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.
