1.Take an A and a K.
Put an S in between
And a marvelous blessing at once will be seen;
For ‘tis “Ask, and it shall be given unto you;”
‘Tis thus, Jesus speaks, and His
Word’s always true.
2.Between an S and a K.
Put two E’s straight away,
And a wonderful promise you’ll have for today;
For the Lord is so kind,
He says “Seek, and you’ll find;”
And the blessing He’ll give is what just suits His mind.
3.Between two lovely K’s,
Place an N, O, and C,
And a rich mine of wealth at once you will see;
For the Saviour says “Knock,” and the Door opens wide;
Faith’s key does unlock, and Christ’s word must abide.
Then “Ask,” “Seek,” and “Knock,” For this is God’s way;
And sure are His blessings, which ne’er pass away.
