Wiser Than The Ancients

I did not learn His way through the seminary But through the way of suffering and tribulation Persecution on every hand is how God makes His man It's how God made this man It was not born through natural ability But through the way of brokenness With tears and fasting Lonely seasons out in the woods Is how God met with me It's how God meets with me He hath made me wiser than my enemies Because I love thy law He hath made me to know more than my teachers Because your word is ever in my heart He hath made me to know more than the ancients Because I live to keep Your perfect word I could not always wear the biggest smile But with a broken heart I'd weep And not keep silent God is looking for men who feel His heart and not their own His heart more than their own He hath made me wiser than my enemies Because I love thy law He hath made me to know more than my teachers Because your word is ever in my heart He hath made me to know more than the ancients Because I live to keep Your perfect word
