She Built a House

 

Wisdom's House

Wisdom has built a new house

And it is open for all to see

It is built upon seven pillars

The first of which is purity

The second one is peaceableness

Followed by gentleness

The fourth pillar is reasonableness

Which means easy to be entreated

The fifth is, "full of mercy and good"

Y'all, how blessed we are that wisdom

Decided to build in our neighborhood

And we could not do without

Pillar six which is "without partiality"

Which means, same treatment for you and for me

And the last of the seven is sincerity.

Oh, what a magnificent house

Wisdom has constructed

For in it, she has placed the

Seven pillars by which a life of

Wisdom should be conducted.

And don't forget that she has invited

Us all over to dine

For which reason, I am so excited

Because, Y'all, I have it on good authority

That her food is simply divine!©
