I brought the king some presents
To show that I'm no peasant
Only heard about his wisdom
But I'd never met him ever
I said I'm gonna test him
Turned out only half was told me
The intelligence he showed me
Exceeded Ð all normal limits
Sheba is hard to find
These days Ð but in my time
It was prob'ly somewhere near A-
rabia or Yemen even
Sheba is hard to find
Queen I was but in my palace
Wisdom's hard to find as well but
Solomon Ð had vast supplies
Sheba woman, queen of the land
Sheba woman, meet Solomon
I brought the king some presents
Spice, gold and gems so precious
All ever had to give me
Was the answers to my questions
Solomon gave me presents
Turned around and I went home
With gifts far better than my own
It truly Ð was quite a visit
LEAD
CHORUS
Solomon gave me presents
I know that he's no peasant
1 Kings chapter 10, it's written
Down forever and forever
He answered all my questions
There was only one man known
Who's wiser than King Solomon
He's Jewish Ð and comes from Heaven
1 Kings 10:1
When the queen of Sheba heard about the fame of Solomon and his relation to the name of the LORD, she came to test him with hard questions.
