Word from the Wise
by East to West

Album: East to West

Starting to hear so many voices
Constantly cloud my mind
Beginning to see so many choices
Decisions on every side

I need to know the truths of old
To stand on steady ground
What I wouldn't give if I could live
In the wisdom Solomon found

I need a word from the wise
That's what I'm searching for
So I call upon the voice of experience
Give me a sign
Show me an open door
A way to rise above every circumstance
I want a chance
To build toward a future
From the truth of the past
I need divine advice
A word from the wise

Today I will face a world of distractions
Fighting to win my time
Tomorrow I'll see the fruit of my actions
So I've got to do what's right

I need to know those truths of old
So, Lord, I look to You
What I wouldn't give if I could live
In the wisdom Solomon knew

I need a word from the wise
That's what I'm searching for
So I call upon the voice of experience
Give me a sign
Show me an open door
A way to rise above every circumstance
I want a chance
To build toward a future
From the truth of the past
I need divine advice
A word from the wise

If I had one wish, If I had one prayer
I'd ask for the death of God's reason
No other gift could ever compare
To a heart that is full of His wisdom

(Give me a sign)
(I want a chance)

Oh, I want a chance
To build toward a future
From the truth of the past
I need divine advice
A word from the wise
A word from the wise
