1. Take an and a ,
Put an 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 and a
Put two ’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 ’s
Place an , and ,
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.
