Your Life Full and Well-Proverbs 3: 1,2

Wisdom lies in all of God's book
but Proverbs specially is real wise
divine instruction is it's very source
to lift one up so fully to rise

Learn well to take in such truth
that God conveys His very commands
place them deep within your heart
so you hold firm whatever stands

God's law is for your good
to help you always faithfully stand
whatever attacks you don't retreat
for the Lord knows all He's planned

That plan is for eternity
so you live always out of time
to be in another world so blessed
walking in step to heaven's rhyme

This truly is God's view
your life full and well
walk by faith and grace
eternally under His spell

('Good friend, don’t forget all I’ve taught you;
take to heart my commands.
They’ll help you live a long, long time,
a long life lived full and well.')
Proverbs 3:1-2  (The Message)
