Ask, and It Shall Be Given You

Author: M. H. C. Hymnal: Rodeheaver's Gospel Songs for church, Sunday Schools and evangelistic services #45 (1922) First Line: Are you burdened with sin and sadness? Lyrics: 1 Are you burdened with sin and sadness? Have you sorrows that no one can share? Are you longing for joy and gladness? O take it to God in prayer. Refrain: “Ask, and it shall be given you; Seek, and ye shall find; Knock, and it shall be opened, Be opened unto you.” 2 Are you weary, distressed, and lonely? Are you sighing for comfort and rest? None can help you but Jesus only, None other can cheer and bless. [Refrain] 3 Do you want to be made a blessing To the lost as you journey below? If your being He is possessing, His power He will bestow. [Refrain] 4 Through the riches of Christ in glory, Every need He can fully supply; If you walk in the light before Him, No good thing will He deny. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Are you burdened with sin and sadness]
