Behind all the wrinkles and all the gray hair
There lives a lady so wise and so fair
If you listen to what she has to say
She'll tell you the curve's along life's way.
She's been there and back again you see,
She has much Wisdom for you and me.
Although now she doesn't remember her name
Don't lose patience, she's not playing a game.
Tomorrow she'll gain her memory
And tell you in part her life's story.
She'll tell you I'm sure just what it takes
To make it through and that it makes
A difference just how you live
By giving and caring and how your give
Advice when asked and silence when not,
and that's how her Wisdom she got.
She kept "God as her Guide"
And stayed "Close by His side"
Every day she listened for His voice
So she could always make the right choice
She never had the generation gap
She loved and held little ones on her lap.
And as her life slowly fades away
She knew "With Jesus" she'd forever stay
She left a lot of love here behind
So, Wisdom's Key everyone could find.
