KINGDOM WISE 

Verse1	
I knew this old guy
His life was like a fire    
With pain and misery
Raging out of control
But always kept on smiling
He just put it all aside
Asked him how he did it
Then he looked me in the eyes

Chorus 1
Do you know forgiveness?
Do you know salvation?
Do you know Jesus?
Who died for your sins.
Do you thank the Lord every day?
And every night do you pray?
Do you use your Bible as your guide?
Are you Kingdom Wise?

Verse2
Spoke about his past
A time of anger and hate
When he was selfish and mad
His heart as cold as ice
Then in his desperation
He went to a church one day
His whole life changed
When he heard that preacher say

Chorus 2 
Do you know forgiveness?
Do you know salvation?
Do you know Jesus?
Who died for your sins.
Do you thank the Lord everyday?
And every night do you pray?
Do you use your Bible as your guide?
Are you Kingdom Wise?

Verse 3 
His story was strong
Made me start thinking
About that little country church
When I was just a child
Then tears came to my eyes
And I started praying
When I got off of my knees
Felt a new peace inside

Modulation into lead
 
Verse 4
So if everyday is a struggle
And nights are filled with worry
You'll never find relief
By the sins of this world
There's a better way to live
These battles have been conquered
Just give it all to Jesus
His Peace shall prevail
And:

Chorus 3
Do you know forgiveness?
Do you know salvation?
Do you know Jesus?
Who died for your sins.
Do you thank the Lord every day?
And every night do you pray?
Do you use your Bible as your guide?
Are you Kingdom Wise?

Out-Chorus
Do you thank the Lord every day?
And every night do you pray?
Do you use your Bible as your guide?
Are you Kingdom Wise?
La La La La 
Are you Kingdom Wise?
