Wisdom - Iona

You were the very first

Before the world began

And the oceans rose

And the rivers ran

And the water flowed

Before the mountains and hills

Were set in place

Before stars in the sky

And the human race

You were there

Wisdom, teach me what is right

Wisdom, come and give me sight

Wisdom, come and be my light

My light

You are the voice of truth

That is just and right

A shield to the faithful

A sword for the fight

A path for the wise

And those who desire You

More than silver or gold

Will find understanding

Within the soul

For You are there

Wisdom, teach me what is right

Wisdom, come and give me sight

Wisdom, come and be my light

My light
