Swift to Hear, Slow to Answer John Michael Talbot Wisdom
Be swift to hear, slow to answer
A man's words can lead to his fall
If you have knowledge, humbly answer
If not, say nothing at all

Before investigation, find no fault
Hold all within
Before you hear, hold back your answer
For in many words there seldom lacks sin

So never repeat gossip
Never repeat an evil report
Let all you hear die within you
It will not make you burst, be now assured

Admonish your friend, the story maybe slander
Do not believe every story you hear
Admonish your friend, the accused maybe innocent
And if guilty, he may not do it again

Be swift to hear, slow to answer
You will find Wisdom from God

Be swift to hear, slow to answer
You will find Wisdom from God
