Seek Ask Seek Knock (Matthew 7:8)

V5

[INTRO — spoken] Ask Seek Knock [VERSE 1] Prayer is an honest conversation Ongoing, real, not staged You already know what I need, Lord But You still want me to say it So I bring what’s on my mind Every fear and every plan Not trying to force Your hand Just trying to hold Your hand [PRE-CHORUS] You’re a good Father, You care for me You shape my heart while I’m asking Sometimes the answer is yes Sometimes the answer is no But either way You are good [CHORUS] So I keep asking, keep asking For hearts to soften, for wisdom to come I keep seeking, keep seeking Till my desires line up with Yours I keep knocking, keep knocking With hope that You will move Because when I come to You as I am You open up the door [VERSE 2] You won’t give me what breaks Your character You only give what’s good And sometimes what I want isn’t healing But You still love me like You should So I spend time with You Learn Your voice, learn Your ways And the more I know Your heart The more my prayers change [CHORUS] So I keep asking, keep asking For hearts to soften, for wisdom to come I keep seeking, keep seeking Till my desires line up with Yours I keep knocking, keep knocking With hope that You will move Because when I come to You as I am You open up the door [BRIDGE — scripture (word-for-word, NLT)] For everyone who asks, receives. Everyone who seeks, finds. And to everyone who knocks, the door will be opened. [FINAL CHORUS — bigger] So I keep asking, keep asking For hearts to soften, for wisdom to come I keep seeking, keep seeking Till my desires line up with Yours I keep knocking, keep knocking Expecting You to move Because when I come to You as I am You open up the door [OUTRO — quiet] Ask Seek Knock I’m staying at the door with You
