WISDOM

 

WISDOM

 

I hold my head up high

looking deep within the sky

thanking my God for my Life

and for my mind

thanking him for the wisdom 

he has handed down to me 

that has been written in ancient history 

 

I thank you My God for the rain 

I thank you for the pain that came my way

I thank you for everything 

I listen to his words that is written on the wall

even if it is covered in blood 

 

I remember all my pains of yesterday

I have learned from them in so many ways

I thank you My God for the wisdom of Life

even when the wisdom wasn't very nice

the pains of yesterday’s rain 

is the wisdom of all?
