Queenly Questions

"The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation, and condemn them: for she came from the utmost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, a greater than Solomon is here" (Luke 11:23).

Our Lord commended the queen of the south
For asking the questions she did
And hearing the answers from Solomon's mouth
Whose wisdom from her was not hid.

This is the queen who will rise up to judge
The men of this proud generation,
Despising reproof, refusing to budge
To turn to the Lord for salvation.

Come with an honest, inquiring mind,
For God has the answers you need.
Leave all your presuppositions behind,
And let His clear evidence lead.

"Come now," God says; that's not a suggestion!
Come now; you dare not delay!
Come as the queen did with each honest question;
Come while it's still called today.
