Ask, Seek, Knock

Hymn & Tune: 'All For Jesus'

Luke 11 v.9-13

*********

Ask, and it shall be given you

These our Lord's words spoken true

And too seek and you shall sure find

The Lord shall reveal, He kind

 

Knock, it shall be opened to you

The Lord's graces you shall view

For each one that asks does receive

They that seek do find, believe

 

To those that knock, door it shall be

Opened, they gain entrance, see

For if askign bread of father

Will he give a stone rather?

 

Or if asking a fish, will he

Give a serpent harmfully?

Or if asking an egg, will he

Give scorpion fatally?

 

So then if we in sinful state

Know how to give gifts good, great

How much more your Father above

In heaven, out of His love

 

Shall give you good things, ask, seek, knock

He your requests shall not block

The Holy Spirit He shall give

To those who ask, they full live

      That knock on the door has not worked for Joyce!!

        I understand Gold. I don't know why.
        For me - should I sometimes be asking when I my be knocking? Or seeking when I should be asking? Or any of the other combinations?
