lyrics

Wisdom speaks – out in the open, she speaks
Words for the wise men who seek – Wisdom speaks
And she waits – out in the square, pleads her case
Calls from the walls and the gates – then she waits

Truth wears no disguise – fools hear and despise
Heed this word to the wise – a word to the wise

Bring your gold – the birth of this King was foretold
Follow the light and behold – bring your gold
Bring Him incense –
this Priest will atone for your sins, and
His blood will be sacrificed –
they’ll embalm Him with spices and herbs –
bring Him myrrh

Wait for the light to appear –
Wisdom has spoken, draw near
Fools will outnumber the stars –
but Truth has been born in your hearts
