A.S.K.

Steve Cochrane 1955 (Cape)

Rhymed
Ask for the help you sometimes need
Unless, of course, it deals with greed.
God is not Santa Claus.

Seek how the Lord wants you to live,
Like helping others when you give
More than "Hi" as you pause!

Knock is the sound your heart will hear
When listening with internal ears.
God wants you with your flaws!
