Seek Ye First

  C      G        Am          Em
Seek ye first the kingdom of God
   Dm7  C        G   G7
And His righteousness
 C             G              Am        Em
And all these things shall be added unto you
Dm7   C    Dm7 G  C
Allelu, alleluia

Man does not live by bread alone
But by every word
That proceeds from the mouth of God
Allelu, alleluia

Ask and it shall be given unto you
Seek and ye shall find
Knock and the door shall be opened unto you
Allelu, alleluia

Allelu, alleluia.

Seek ye first the kingdom of God
And His righteousness,
And all these things shall be added unto you,
Allelu, alleluia.
