Happy is the man that findeth wisdom.
Prov. 3:13.

O happy is the man who hears

Instruction’s warning voice;

And who celestial wisdom makes

His early, only choice.

2 For she has treasure greater far

Than east or west unfold,

And her reward is more secure

Than all the gain of gold.

3 In her right hand she holds to view

A length of happy years;

And in her left the prize of fame

And honor bright appears.

4 She guides our youth with innocence

In pleasure’s path to tread;

A crown of glory she bestows

Upon the hoary head.

5 According as her labors rise,

So her rewards increase;

Her ways are ways of pleasantness,

And all her paths are peace.
