SEEK AND YE SHALL FIND.

[_]

The following poem is scored for music in the source text.

1

Who has our Redeemer heard,
Whose voice was good and kind?
Thus he spoke in holy word:
Seek and ye shall find.

CHORUS.

Ask and it shall be given,
Seek and ye shall find.
Every prayer is heard in heaven
That is breathed from a truthful mind.

2

Come with gentle, contrite heart,
And seek the Savior's grace,
Come, that when from earth we part,
We'll meet him face to face.

Cho.

Ask and it shall be, &c.

3

Every prayer is heard above,
That we sincerely feel,
Every sigh received with love,
When we repenting kneel.

Cho.

Ask and it shall be, &c.

4

Life to all, our Lord has shown,
Then be to Hope resigned,
When around you, doubts are thrown
“Seek and ye shall find.”

Cho.

Ask and it shall be, &c.
