Seek Ye First - Matthew 6:33, 4:4, 7:7 sung by Jack Marti

One of the first scripture songs I ever heard back in the early '70s. It was on the original Praise LP. It's always been a favorite of mine through the years.

Seek ye first the kingdom of God
And His righteousness,
And all these things shall be added unto you.
Hallelu! Hallelujah!

Man shall not live by bread alone,
But by every word
That proceeds from the mouth of God.
Hallelu! hallelujah!

Ask and it shall be given unto you.
Seel and ye shall find.
Knock and the door shall be opened unto you.
Hallelu! hallelujah!

I graduated high school in 1972, and the way you play is very similar to the style that I used to play in high school. I grew up on the Wedgwood Trio, Take Three, and Peter, Paul, and Mary. I'm sure that if you and I got together, we would enjoy playing the similar kind of music. So what I do is play your videos and sing and play along. It is very much a blessing. I have a Martin D-28, Yamaha 12 string, Classical, and 5 string banjo. I fingerpick with banjo fingerpicks on the guitar.

@guitarcountry1 4 years I wanted a D-28, until I finally had the money 1 day and decided 2 buy a Taylor instead! For years the only guitar I had was a Yamaha 12 string! I bought it when I was 16 in 1972, and sold it in 1979, not long after I got married. I did have a 1949 Martin 000-18 for a while, but had to sell it along with a 1934 Dobro, a 1978 Les Paul Custom, and a Fender twin reverb amp when my son was born in order 2 buy baby furniture! I also like the Wedgwood Trio, T3, and P.P.&M. :o)

Oh the precious truth of this song.

How I wish they could see.

I wish all would see the peace and joy and DESIRE it.

Gods message is this people of the world.

What God has done for me, He will do for YOU.

Are you in chains? Is your life in bondage??

But time is running out.

When he returns and shuts the door, its over.

Oh how sad..... ITS A FREE GIFT !

JESUS IS THE ANSWER
