Are Your Windows Open?

In your sec­ret heart

my bro­ther

Was the day with God be­gun?

Did you ask His guid­ance all along the way?

Did you give into His keep­ing

Hours of joy and hours of weep­ing?

When the world has called you from Him

did you pray?

Are your win­dows op­en

bro­ther

Are they op­en t’ward Je­ru­sa­lem?

Have you found the peace the world takes not away?

Has the noon­tide found you

bro­ther

With your face turned t’ward the east?

Is your trea­sure hid where thieves can nev­er steal?

Have men from your lips been learn­ing

Of the Sav­ior’s ten­der yearn­ing?

Have you told them of His love that all may feel?

When the ev­en­ing comes

my bro­ther

Will it bring you glad­ly home?

Will the work that He has giv­en you be done?

Will the Mas­ter’s voice at ev­en

Bid you an­chor in His Heav­en?

Will it pro­fit

tho’ the world you may have won?
