4C

 “If I could give you anything

 

whatever would it be?”

 

said God, one night, to Solomon,

          Dm

when he was fast asleep.

        C

And as he lay there dreaming,

G

he began to sing,

  C                               F

“Right I’ve made my mind up,

              G                 C

I need wisdom to be king!  (instrumental) C  F  C  F  G / C

 

 

God was pleased with Solomon,

he hadn’t asked for money.

He hadn’t asked for long life,

nor each day to be sunny.

Because he asked for wisdom,

with riches he was clothed;

and long life and glory,

the wisest king of all!  (instrumental) C  F  C  F  G / C
