Traditional Seek and Ye Shall Find Knock and the door shall be opened Ask, and it shall be given And the love comes a-tricklin' down. My brother, the Lord has spoken My sister, the Lord has spoken My brother, the Lord has spoken, And the love comes a-tricklin' down. OK, that's what I have in memory, and that tricklin' may come from the trickle-down theory or something. Here are the lyrics from an actual, printed book called "Songs," by Yohann Anderson: (If you just) Seek and you shall find Knock and the door shall be opened, Ask, and it shall be given And the love will come a-tum-ba-lin down. 1. On every door I knocked full measure Some they offered fame and pleasure But I found life's greatest treasure When the love came a-tum-ba-lin down. 2. Life is a long hard journey and To Him it matters where it ends So make the journey count my friend And Love will come a-tum-ba-lin down. 3. I know that the Lord is with us I know that the Lord is with us I know that the Lord is with us And the love will come a tum-ba-lin down 4. I know that the Lord has shown me. (repeat twice more) And the love will come a tum-ba-lin down 5. I know that the Lord has told me (repeat twice more) And the love will come a tum-ba-lin down
