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.
