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.
