Seek Ye The Lord While He May Be Found
Seek Ye The Lord While He May Be Found
Children's Song
Seek ye the Lord while He may be found
Call ye upon Him while He is near
Seek ye the Lord while He may be found
Call ye upon Him while He is near
Then shall the righteousness
Then shall the righteousness
Then shall the righteousness
And the glory of the Lord (Glory of the Lord)
And the glory of the Lord (Glory of the Lord)
And the glory of the Lord (Glory of the Lord)
Shall be everywhere
The glory of the Lord shall be everywhere
The glory of the Lord shall be everywhere.
Notes
Nyango wrote, "This biblical one is for marching to class in the morning thanks to my Baptist School known as CBS Great Soppo (elementary and middle school in a town called Buea, Cameroon. We were also taught to write about God always using a capital letter for any pronoun referring to Him :-)
Some sang: 'The glory of the Lord shall be thy reward'. I think the right one should be in the bible because this is from a bible verse."
