Seek First

Seek First
When everything's upside down
Seek First
When no answers exist
Seek First
When all there is is pain
Seek First
When every army's at your door

When you need hope
And are desperately looking for peace
Seek me first, Dear One
Pursue my Kingdom
    And find that my rest follows

Ever again lay down your cares
Cast aside your worries and release your fears
Give me your burdens, Princess
Breathe in my Spirit as you expel all the rest

Seek First
Before you have a chance to doubt
Seek First
And you will find
Seek First
My promises are true
Seek First
There's no striving in my Kingdom

Capture my hear, Lord
Fill my mind
Show me how to seek
Teach me to find
Help me walk in your promises
May I light the way
