08. Walk With The Wise

The Great Adventure
by Steven Curtis Chapman



 

I prayed a prayer for wisdom like a farmer prays for rain
'Cause I knew that I must have it to survive in this life
And I stared out in the distance 'cause it seemed so far away
And I waited for the lightning
But the thunder and the lightning never came
So I took a look beside me to my left and to my right
And saw people full of wisdom all around in my life
And it started to come clearer I began to understand
that my prayer was being answered it's all part of God's plan

If we walk with the wise we will grow wise ...wo...wo
If we walk in the light then our path will be bright I know
There's someone who's already been where we must go
In the light of what they've learned we find
That we will grow wise if we walk with the wise

I've learned to look for answers in those born before my time
As I listen to them tell me what they've learned in thier lives
I talk to friends with understanding much deeper than my own
And gain wisdom beyound measure I could never find alone

If we walk with the wise we will grow wise ...wo...wo
If we walk in the light then our path will be bright I know
There's someone who's already been where we must go
In the light of what they've learned we find
That we will grow wise if we walk with the wise

One life can be a candle with widom as it's fire
And everything it touches with it's flame is set ablaze

If we walk with the wise we will grow wise ...wo...wo
If we walk in the light then our path will be bright I know
There's someone who's already been where we must go
In the light of what they've learned we find
That we will grow wise if we walk with the wise
