MORRIS, ROB (1818-1888)



"ASK! SEEK!! KNOCK!!!"

Ask, and ye shall receive;

Seek, and ye shall surely find;

Knock, ye shall no resistance meet,

If come with ready mind;

For all that Ask and Ask aright,

Are welcome to our lodge to-night.


Lay Down the bow and spear;

Resign the sword and shield;

Forget the arts of warfare here,

The arms of peace to wield;

For all that Seek and Seek aright,

Are welcome to our lodge to-night.


Bring hither thoughts of peace;

Bring hither words of love;

Diffuse the pure and holy joy

That cometh from above;

For all that Knock and knock aright,

Are welcome to our lodge to-night.


Ask help of Him that's high

Seek grace of Him that's true;

Knock patiently, the hand is nigh,

Will open unto you;

For all that Ask, Seek, Knock aright,

Are welcome to our lodge to-night.
