Wisdom Street

Notes from Joel:

James 1:5, "If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God who gives to all men generously and without reproaching, and it will be given him." What a great promise...wrote a song about it. Wanna hear it? Hear it goes...

First released on Wisdom Street (1990)

Credits: Joel Weldon - Lead vocals, guitars, bass; Craig Bidondo - Keyboards; Timothy Jones - Drums, percussion; Chris Merkling - Background vocals

Wisdom Street

Far off in a sacred land a place called Wisdom Street
A diamond in a holy hand held out for all to see
Wisdom seldom seen elusive to my touch
Questions on every dream what price could be too much?

chorus
Where should I go?
What should I do?
What should I say?
And who should I say it to?
Oh Lord, take me down to Wisdom Street
Oh Lord, take me down to Wisdom Street
God I need some wisdom

Hard roads leading there I strain to find my way
Reward beyond compare helps me endure the pain
Storm clouds keep on rising this worldly race a mess
No fear of an awesome God leads to arrogance at best

chorus

Problems on every side stare me in the face
Can't run and I can't hide I'm held by time and space
A son needs his father to help him understand
My God please hear my prayer I need to take your hand

chorus
