Ask a sign of the Lord,
Be as high as Heaven;
Requests are not ignored,
If sincerely given.
 
Put not God to the test,
Never to tempt the Lord;
Show a passionate zest,
Being in one accord.
 
O house of David hear,
It is too small for you;
To God you must revere,
Being faithful and true.
 
But will the Lord weary,
He will give you a sign;
At a time so dreary,
From a moral decline.
 
The virgin shall conceive,
And she shall bear a son;
That the world will receive,
Salvation to be won.
 
Immanuel His name,
Eating curds and honey;
Evil not to proclaim,
Choose good over money.
 
For before the boy knew,
How to refuse evil;
Choosing good to pursue,
And reject the devil.
 
The Lord will bring on you,
The future of such days;
With insight to construe,
To walk in righteous ways.
