English Lyrics

Verse 1

Seek ye first the kingdom, ‘Tis your Father’s will So the voice of Jesus bids us follow still. Savior, we would hear Thee, Follow, find, and see; And in life’s adventure Thy disciples be.

Verse 2

As for hidden treasure, Or for matchless pearl, When at last discovered, some will sell their all: So, when breaks the vision of that kingdom fair, Ours shall be its riches And its beauty rare.

Verse 3

As the silent leaven works its secret way, Or as grows the seed grain through the night and day; Lord, so be the increase, peaceable but sure, Of Thy word within us, And Thy kingdom’s power

Verse 4

As the tender seedling grows up tall and strong, And the birds of heaven to its branches throng; So shall all God’s children, from the east and west, Gather to His kingdom, In its shadow rest.

Verse 5

Humblest shall be greatest, poor in spirit reign; Home shall come the childlike, born through Thee again; Eager hearts arrive there on the pilgrim’s road, Hail! The kingdom glorious Of the living God!
