Lest He for­ev­er de­part.
Just out­side the door?
Just out­side the door?
Wants thee as thou art;
Standing at your door,
Those three princ­es at the door
But, oh, the des­pair and the ang­uish
The glo­ry of His grace.
Where sins are re­mem­bered no more.

To save a peo­ple fet­tered with sin,
Shun the world’s al­lure­ments; leave the ways of sin;

knock­ing

Somebody’s knock­ing at your door,
Knocking, knock­ing, ev­er more.
Is knock­ing at the door of your heart;
Patiently now, with anx­ious brow
Christ, the Lord of all;
Let Him in, O let Him in;
At the heart’s thrice bolt­ed door,
Waiting, wait­ing, oh, how fair!
Jesus is knock­ing,
Has He knocked be­fore?
Has He knocked be­fore?
At thy heart.
Now as oft be­fore.
Thee to wor­ship, gen­tle Child,
Then the Bride­groom in glo­ry des­cend­ing,
Of ev­ery sin­ner’s heart;
He oft­en has knocked there be­fore;
He oft­en has knocked there be­fore;
Open your heart and let Him come in.
Give your heart to Je­sus, lay it at His feet;
