Subject: ADD: SEEK YE FIRST
I guess everyone knows Rock of Ages, so I'll go on to the next-- SEEK YE FIRST.

The Alleluia's can be sung as a separate refrain, and/or as a counterpoint to the verse sung simultaneously. A pretty one.

=====================================

SEEK YE FIRST
By Karen Lafferty. From Matthew 6:33.

1. Seek ye first the kingdom of God,
And His righteousness,
And all these things shall be given unto you,
Al-le-lu, allelu--ia.

REFRAIN:
Alleluia,
Alleluia,
Alleluia,
Al-le-lu, allelu---ia.

2. Man shall not live by bread alone,
But by every word
That proceeds from the mouth of God,
Al-le-lu, allelu--ia.

3. Ask and it shall be given unto you,
Seek and ye shall find.
Knock and the door shall be opened unto you,
Al-le-lu, allelu--ia.
