Hark, the Savior’s knocking, knocking (revised)

Hark

the Savior’s knocking

knocking

Knocking at your heart!

Oh

do not be hardened

hardened

Lest He should depart.

Rise and open up your heart

Quickly let Him in;

Life divine He’ll give you

give you

And forgive your sin.

Let Him in! Let Him in!

He’s knocking at your heart;

Let Him in! Oh

let Him in!

Let Him in your heart.

Hear Him calling

“Sinner

Sinner

Come find rest in Me;

I gave up My body

body

For you on the tree;

Died that you receive God’s grace

Bled to purchase thee

That your sins

though scarlet

scarlet

White as snow may be.”

Why should you still tarry

tarry

Leave Him at the door?

Once this chance is over

over

It may come no more!

He’s so full of love for you;

Do not make Him sigh.

Life divine He’ll give you

give you;

Why just wait to die?

If you still would tarry

tarry

There will come a day

When you will be sorry

sorry

Beg the Lord to stay.

Grace’s door will be shut then;

Tears will be in vain.

Why not grasp this moment

moment

Let Him entrance gain?
