LOVE COME TWINKLIN' DOWN

Chorus
Oh, seek, seek, seek and ye shall find
Jes' knock, an' it shall be opened,
Jes' ask, and it shall be given,
An' the Love come twinklin' down.

My mother, you ought to a-been there,
Mother, you ought a-been there,
Mother, you ought a-been there,
When the love come twinklin' down.
Cho.
Oh, father, you ought to a-been there, etc.
Cho.
My sister, you ought to a-been there, etc.
Cho.
My brother, you ought to a-been there, etc.
Cho.
