1 What are you seeking day by day,
Working with heart and hand?
Is it for honour in the fray?
Is it for wealth or land?
Turn from the eager longing thirst,
Turn from the world's great strife,
Seek ye the Kingdom of Heaven first,
Seek ye eternal life.

Chorus:
For the Kingdom of Heav'n is better
Than pearls of a priceless worth,
Than treasures great, or pomp of state,
Than the kingdom of all the earth.
It ever abideth within you,
This home of the life divine,
Let the dark clouds roll from your heart and soul,
Let the Light of the Kingdom shine.

2 What are you seeking day by day?
Is it for something new?
Is it for pleasures bright and gay,
Brief as the morning dew?
Seek ye the Kingdom evermore,
Joys shall be added then,
Greater than all that you felt before,
ever renew'd again. [Chorus]

3 What are you seeking day by day,
Comrade so brave and true?
Is it for some great thing to say?
Some noble deed to do?
Give to the Master heart and hand,
Follow in truth and love,
So shall you share in His work and stand
Crown'd in the life above. [Chorus]

4 Enter the Kingdom, child of truth,
Seeking the Saviour's face;
Enter the Kingdom, maid and youth,
Come in your strength and grace;
Enter the Kingdom one and all,
Cease from the path to stray,
Hear ye the voice of the Master call,
'I am the living Way.' [Chorus]
