Religion
Assurance and Encouragement.--Matt. vii. 7, 8
From Sacred Poems and Hymns (1854)
Religion
While these commands endure,
These promises are sure;
And 'tis an easy task
To knock, to seek, to ask:
Sinner hast thou the willing mind?
Saint, art thou thus inclined?
Dost thou expect, desire, believe?
Then knock and enter, seek and find,
Ask and receive.
