An original hymn with text by Mark Fotheringham below. Watch on YouTube: Ask the Truth of God, hymn

Verse 1

Learned men through every age

Have argued over truth.

Creeds and concepts clamouring,

Strife of words concerned a youth.

Still he sought to do what's right,

Confused by differing voices.

Thus he studied scripture seeking truth;

To the book of James he turned.

CHORUS

If a man lacks wisdom then he should ask of God

For He will answer liberally and He will not upbraid.

Never had a scripture entered into heart of man

As this one entered into Joseph's heart.

He would ask the truth of God.

Verse 2

Never had the boy prayed aloud,

Unsure of what to say.

James wrote let him ask in faith,

Nothing wavering to know His Word,

For God is listening

And will answer fervent petitions.

Joseph knew if he could ask in faith

All God's promises were sure.

CHORUS
