Proverbs & Ecclesiastes in Common Meter - Paperback

by D. Scott Foote (Compiled by)

O trust upon the Lord your God with all your heart and mind;

On understanding of your own, don't lean or be inclined.

Acknowledge God in all your ways and everything you know;

Then He will make your pathways straight and show the way to go. (Proverbs 3:6)

A gentle answer on the tongue turns wrath and strife away;

But strident words stir anger up and instigate a fray. (Proverbs 15:1)

For everything there is a life and season of its own;

Yes, under heaven there's a plan and time for it alone.

There is a time that one is born, and time as well to die;

There is a time that one should plant, and time to use the scythe. (Ecclesiastes 3:1-2)
