What are you doing, O my son (Pr 31:2)
Hear now these words from your mom (Pr 31:1)
Don't give your strength to these women (Pr 31:3)
For even great kings they ruin
Listen now, son of my vows (Pr 31:2)

For an excellent wife (Pr 31:10)
Can one find in this life?
More rare would she be
Than a jewel hidden deep
She does good and never harm (Pr 31:12)
She wakes up before the dawn (Pr 31:15)
Her lamp is lit throughout the night (Pr 31:18)
And she is clothed with strength and might (Pr 31:25)
She laughs at all the times to come (Pr 31:25)
For there is kindness on her tongue (Pr 31:26)
She fears not the winter snow (Pr 31:21)
Not while thick scarlet clothes her home
Charm is deceitful (Pr 31:30)
And beauty is vain
But she fears the Lord,
Oh She shall be praised

For an excellent wife (Pr 31:10)
Can one find in this life?
More rare would she be
Than a jewel hidden deep
She never eats of idleness (Pr 31:27)
Her children rise and call her blessed (Pr 31:28)
Her husband also echoes praise (Pr 31:11)
Among the elders at the gates
She makes fine garments and silk sheets (Pr 31:24)
For all the merchants on the streets
Her hands reach out unto the poor (Pr 31:20)
She knows their worth is so much more
Charm is deceitful (Pr 31:30)
And beauty is vain
But she fears the Lord,
Oh she shall be praised

And now I am grown and far from home
As I go make my life my own
Does such a woman exist
We're they just rumors and myths
But then I see she who raised me
The one who had trained me
These traits that I look for
I've seen them all before
Such women aren't gone
For one is my mom
