Lyics

Now ask remission of your sins,
And ease from all your pain
And Christ your lep'rous souls will cleanse;
And wash away the stain.


Ask but his grace to do his will,
And grace to make you strong;
Humility your souls to fill,
And praise upon your tongue.


Seek now your Saviour's precious love,
And his salvation too;
Lay up your treasures far above;
The heav'nly road pursue.


Seek now the bread, the heavn'ly bread,
That giveth life to all;
Seek your redemption from the dead,
And in God's presence fall.


Seek now for mercy at the door,
And find your Saviour good;
And as you want, still knock for more,
And he'll bestow the food.
