Wisdom
Do you spend your days
Wrapped in a fog of foolishness and doubt?
Do you sit and wonder sometimes
Just what life is all about?
Listen! Wisdom's calling in the street
Listen, if you've ears to hear
Listen to the voice of one who knows
"How long will you turn your back on truth?"
Love became a man
And came to live with us below
But the people didn't care
And didn't want to know
"Kill him, get rid of him today
"Crucify him, just take him away
"Good men don't rock the boat like him
"Life's alright the way we live it now."
So the world spins on
Not caring for eternal things
Spoilt children for eternity
Instead of priests and kings
Life, love, peace, joy, all these wait for you
Don't say you don't care
And right now is when you must decide
Open your heart, let him in to stay
Wrapped in a fog of foolishness and doubt?
Do you sit and wonder sometimes
Just what life is all about?
Listen! Wisdom's calling in the street
Listen, if you've ears to hear
Listen to the voice of one who knows
"How long will you turn your back on truth?"
Love became a man
And came to live with us below
But the people didn't care
And didn't want to know
"Kill him, get rid of him today
"Crucify him, just take him away
"Good men don't rock the boat like him
"Life's alright the way we live it now."
So the world spins on
Not caring for eternal things
Spoilt children for eternity
Instead of priests and kings
Life, love, peace, joy, all these wait for you
Don't say you don't care
And right now is when you must decide
Open your heart, let him in to stay
