Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
I was a child, I was selfish and unruly
I didn't know what I didn't know
Wouldn't let the truth get to me
Wouldn't let a new song in
Till she met me where I am
Lady Wisdom
She calls me out
In a voice of understanding
With her hand she built my house
She sets my table with goodness and love
And if anybody asks me where I get my spirit from
It's Lady Wisdom
She's always dressed with dignity and honor
Her kindness is a belt that's always wrapped around her
She keeps patience on her tongue
She can laugh at days to come
Lady Wisdom
She calls me out
In a voice of understanding
With her hand she built my house
She sets my table with goodness and love
And if anybody asks me where I get my spirit from
It's Lady Wisdom
She's more valuable that Rubies
Silver or Gold
Happy is the heart that finds her hand to hold
Or the one who knows His ways
Is greatly to be praised
Lady Wisdom, Lady Wisdom
Lady Wisdom
Shout it in the streets
She lifts her voice above the noise
So loud that I can hear
She sets my table with goodness and love
And if anybody asks me where I get my spirit from
It's Lady Wisdom
Lady Wisdom
