King Solomon asked God for great wisdom,
To rule his subjects justly all his life;
He blundered not but did mistakes seldom,
And thanked God for this gift amidst his strife!
God gives His special blessings to some souls,
But punishes them if promises aren’t kept;
God is ready to grant us many roles,
But won’t excuse if we had only slept!
O God, I will not ask of Thee for wealth:
For, I can’t take it back with me when dead;
O God, I ask for just my soul’s good health,
Wisdom, contentment and a balanced head!
God, give me faith unshakeable always,
To show the world your love and pleasant ways!
