Ere dai­ly toils begin,
start
Is it dark with­out you—dark­er still with­in?
Why not come and be made free?
Let Him in, O let Him in!
He is wait­ing out­side,
He is wait­ing out­side,
O house of ma­ny man­sions,
In this most gra­cious hour.
The first time that the skies grew bright,
O hard­en not your heart, dear lost one,
start

op­en wide

And let the light stream in.
Look t’ward Je­ru­sa­lem to­day;
Let a lit­tle sun­shine in.
I’m so glad that I’ve plunged in,
Let Him in today, ask Him in to stay;
And glad­ly He’ll en­ter in.
And glad­ly He’ll en­ter in.
And dear are all the fac­es
To truth and light and love;
And an­gels gleamed adown the night
The Spir­it then will en­ter and
The gate of Heav’n to man be­low;
