Sitting in her old arm­chair,

Open and let Him come in.

The Sav­ior stands wait­ing out­side;
For our Sav­ior’s blood has been shed!
Outside Je­sus pa­tient­ly stands;
Outside Je­sus pa­tient­ly stands;
And let the light stream in.
Won’t you step with­in? O won’t you step with­in?
Mother and the Book of God!
Look t’ward Je­ru­sa­lem to­day;
Let a lit­tle sun­shine in.
Thanks to God whose Word in­car­nate
And yet you will bid Him de­part;
Who en­ter thy por­tals, for ev­er re­main;
For the heart will be bright with a heav’n­ly light
To all who are wea­ry of sin.
Oh, my soul, art thou rea­dy to ap­pear?
In our bless­èd Sav­ior’s side.
The Spir­it is call­ing for thee;
He wait­eth for those who seek;
Jesus the way to Heav’n;
He stands and waits for thee;
