Happy the man that finds the grace
The blessing of God’s chosen race
The wisdom coming from above
The faith that sweetly works by love
2.
Happy beyond description he
Who knows, The Saviour died for me
The gift unspekabale obtains
And heav’nly understanding gains
3.
Wisdom divine! Who tells the price
Of wisdom’s costly merchandise?
Wisdom to silver we prefer
And gold is dross compar’d to her.
4.
Her hands are filled with length of days
True riches and immortal praise
Riches of Christ, on all bestow’d
And honour that descends from God.
5.
To purest joys she all invites
Chaste, holy, spiritual delights
Her ways are ways of pleasantness
And all her flow’ry paths are peace
6.
Happy the man who wisdom gains
Thrice happy who his guest retains
He owns and shall for ever own
Wisdom, and Christ, and Heav’n are one
Amen
