The Lord appeared to Solomon

Just what would you want

If I would grant you anything

On riches I won't dwell

Just grant to me the wisdom Lord

To lead Your people well

When he woke the Lord had blessed
          C majorC
The throne on which he sat
       C majorC
And nobody ever caught him
        FF
Sleepin' after that

FF
People heard about him
           C majorC
And came from far and wide

He'd lay his words of wisdom on
         FF
And open up their eyes

 And didn't Solomon have it all together?

 Don't his words ring clearly as a bell?
