Lyrics: If Any Lack Wisdom
Verse
I’ve been wonderin
Much of my life
What I should do
And I’ve been hungern
For Heaven's light
To show me what’s true
Man's knowledge of God
Is so diverse
Who can be my guide
Then I read a verse
In James 1:5
How It changed my life
Chorus
If any lack wisdom let them ask of God
Who gives to all liberally,
If any lack wisdom let them ask of God
in faith, not wavering
Verse 2
These words I pondered
Again and again
Deep within my heart
Would I move onward
Or in darkness remain
Would God really impart
One beautiful day
I went to a grove
To make my request
When I knelt to pray
darkness was driven away
And God’s light did rest
How I was blessed ,
To know
Chorus
If any lack wisdom let them ask of God
Who gives to all liberally,
If any lack wisdom let them ask of God
in faith, not wavering
Yes I happened to see , how God answered me
Through a simple prayer
How my faith did grow as I came to know
That God is there
Verse 3
So if you’re wonderin
During times in your life
What You should do
And If you’re hungern
For Heaven's light
To show you what’s true
Unto God or Man
Do you show respect
Who will be your guide
For a better plan
Do as James directs
It can change your life
Chorus
If any lack wisdom let them ask of God
Who gives to all liberally,
If any lack wisdom let them ask of God, in faith, not wavering
