Rather than Rubies

"Wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.... for whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain the favor of the Lord" (Proverbs 8:11,35).

How shall we measure what wisdom is worth
That bids us to trust in the Lord?
It's better than rubies and all that the earth
In her hidden treasure has stored.

Better than all that the heart may desire
Is wisdom that our God prepares
For those who will seek Him; no treasure is higher!
There's nothing that even compares!

Come and explore these riches untold
As wisdom unveils God's favor.
Rather than rubies or silver or gold,
Choose wisdom, and thus find the Savior!
