"How Rich a Treasure We Possess" This one sounds so similar to "Lift High the Name of Jesus".  The melody of the verses and the way that both of them play it on an "Open E" (i.e., no 3rd/G#).  Yet I really like this song. Fernando Ortega . Keith and Kristen Getty feature Fernando Ortega on their most recent album.  This guy's hymns are among the best.  Fernando and Audry Assad are sort of the pop-level entry to some of the hymns world.  Much more than a band like Page CXVI.  Some how their reach has really extended far.  Ortega songs get covered by IHOP; Audry Assad literally sang at one of their yearly events (Onething).

Proverbs A6a and A6b: Walking in Wisdom & not by sight

This is the one that has the weird "a6c" section all about contrasting which was really hard to nail down concise titles for.  But it's also the section that has the "not walking by sight" section. (a6b).  And I just noticed that a6a is all summed up by the biggest chiasm fail of the book (the one with the center line of "industry" and the huge stretch of A/A' where he tries to say that talking about a woman building her house is the same thing as saying to join the counsel of the wise. Proverbs 14:2 Whoever walks in uprightness fears the LORD   but he who is devious in his ways despises him. Proverbs 14:2 Whoever walks in uprightness fears the LORD   but he who is devious in his ways despises him. Proverbs 14:2 That word "devious" is translated "perverse" by Waltke.
