Story behind the song
Every believer understands that to know God is the highest and best form of knowledge; and this spiritual knowledge is a source of strength to the Christian. It strengthens his faith. Believers are constantly spoken of in the skriptures as being persons who are enlightened and taught of the Lord; they are said to "have an unction from the Holy One " (1Jo 2:20), and it is the Spirit's peculiar office to lead them into all truth, and all this for the increase and the fostering of their faith. Knowledge strengthens love, as well as faith.
Knowledge opens the door, and then through that door we see our Saviour. Or, to use another similitude, knowledge paints the portrait of Jesus, and when we see that portrait then we love him, we cannot love a Christ whom we do not know, at least, in some degree. If we know but little of the excellences of Jesus, what he has done for us, and what he is doing now, we cannot love him much; but the more we know him, the more we shall love him. Knowledge also strengthens hope.
How can we hope for a thing if we do not know of its existence? Hope may be the telescope, but till we receive instruction, our ignorance stands in the front of the glass, and we can see nothing whatever; knowledge removes the interposing object, and when we look through the bright optic glass we discern the glory to be revealed, and anticipate it with joyous confidence. Knowledge supplies us reasons for patience.
How shall we have patience unless we know something of the sympathy of Christ, and understand the good which is to come out of the correction which our heavenly Father sends us? Nor is there one single grace of the Christian which, under God, will not be fostered and brought to perfection by holy knowledge. How important, then, is it that we should grow not only in grace, but in the "knowledge" of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. - C.H. Spurgeon
Lyrics
Speak to my heart with words of wisdom
That I might understand and sow
Reveal in part that of Your kingdom
Oh that I might so come to know
That I might serve You Lord may I bring You glory
Of all that is Your will may it be so
No one but You oh Lord can cut stone from this quarry
So take this heart and fill me that I may know, You Jesus as Lord
Right from the start with understanding
Let all that You give be all that I know
That wisdom in part is truly demanding
So bring me to love you that I might grow
That I might serve You Lord may I bring You glory
Of all that is Your will may it be so
No one but You oh Lord can cut stone from this quary
So take this heart and fill me that I may know, You Jesus as Lord
Wisdom, knowledge
Understanding to that which is Your plan
That I might serve You Lord that I bring You glory
Of all that is Your will that it be so
No one but You my Lord can cut stone from this quary
So take this heart and fill me in that I know, You Jesus as Lord
Speak to my heart, Right from the start
