Access to Asking

Tune: Winchester New

(\'On Jordan\'s bank the Baptist\'s cry\')

John 16 v.23-28

For Rogationtide - rogare: to ask.

****************

Jesus said, when disciples shall

See Him again, they would know well

That it was Him risen from dead

This hope did hold them in good stead

 

And then truly, Whatsoever

They and we ask, denied never

What we shall ask the Father in

Jesus\' name, He shall give therein

 

Until then they had asked nothing

In Jesus name, but now to bring

Requests, ask, and they shall receive

That their joy be full, they beleive

 

Jesus shall to the Father go

And send the Spirit, we can know

To continue His works of grace

Always His Sprit\'s presence trace
