lyrics

We will ask and keep on asking
Seek and keep on seeking
Knock until the door is opened wide
Pray and keep on praying
Watch and keep on waiting
On our knees every day of our lives

You are the hope and we have seen it
You are the way and we believe it
You are the truth, the life we’ve received
And now long to give

So we will asking and keep on asking for this
Seek and keep on seeking for you
Knock until all heaven is flung wide
We will pray and keep on praying to you
Watch and keep on waiting for you
On our knees even if it takes our whole lives
(you can have our lives)

You are the hope and we have seen it
You are the way and we believe it
You are the truth, the life we’ve received
And now long to give

You are the Father to the orphan
You are the husband for the widow
You are the arms wide-open welcome
to the stranger in town
And you are the healer for the broken
Comforter; restorer to the lost and lonely
And for the poor –
you’re defender and provider always

And you are the one behind each miracle
Each sign and wonder
Each good gift of transformation is sourced from you.
You are the one behind each softened heart
Moved to generous acts of mercy
And the one who brings the intercessors to their knees –
Begging you Lord, crying out Lord please –
Do what’s already on your heart.
