It's Great to be a Georgian
(Wisdom, Justice, Moderation) Wisdom of God, riches untold, East, West, young, old At thy shrine, old knees do bow Georgia, the Lord of all art Thou. / Justice, may it ever reign, O'er Georgia's mountains, hill and plain and our love be free, as the wings of a dove, Our faith in Him who reigns above. / Moderation, ever let it be The heart, the mind, to manage me, Hear East, hear West, list to Georgia's call, Wisdom, Justice, Moderation All. / Wisdom, Justice, Moderation to thee Wisdom to construct, just ever be Moderation in all things, sober in thought, Georgian! What hast thou wrought?
