Proverbs Chapter 20 parts
********
Counsel in the heart of man
Is like deep water, who can
Draw it out? it be they who
Understand, find it out do
Most people they will proclaim
Every one their own good name
But faithful one who can find?
Be they of a rarer kind?
There is gold, many rubies
What can compare unto these?
The lips of knowledge they be
A precious jewel used wisely
Say not you, I will repay
Evil, do my will my way
But wait on the Lord and He
Shall deal with it, save you, see
The spirit of a man is
Candle of the Lord, true this
A lamp searching inward parts
Knowing thoughts of minds and hearts
