14 Where shall wisdom be found? Greeting
Wisdom cries out in the street;
in the squares she raises her voice.
All To you, O people, I call,
and my cry is to all that live.
At the busiest corner wisdom cries out;
at the entrance of the city gates she speaks:
All Take my instruction instead of silver,
and knowledge rather than choice gold.
For wisdom is better than jewels,
and all that you may desire cannot compare with her.
Lord Jesus Christ,
we gladly gather in answer to your life-giving Word.
Grant us grace with one heart and voice to praise your name to the glory of God the Father.
All Amen.
Hymn
All my hope on God is founded (page 15) or
