The unreachable riches
Who can find?
He kept it above
Far beyond the reach of man
And releases it upon request.

The wisdom of God who can attain
Riches and honour are its fruits
And its seeds are true and durable
The blessings they bring, numerous
And its roots abides above.

In His wisdom He kept her above
And in her exploits are His delights
Yet many pursue the riches of men
Which fades away like the dying flower
And its hope remains in itself.

There are things that men can give
Houses and riches are an inheritance from men
Others can steal to have them
But a prudent wife is from the Lord.
You can't inherit such a kind of wife

Nor compel one to be yours
Unless she's given you from the Lord
She can never be yours
He hides her far above the reach of men
And gifts her to His sons.
