I Am the Door (Whittle)

lyricist: Daniel Whittle, 1881
Composer: James McGranahan

O what shall I do to be saved?

The ga­ther­ing storm I be­hold

Exposed to the wrath of my God;

Is there no shel­ter­ing fold

Is there no shel­ter­ing fold?

I am the door

by Me if any man en­ter in

He shall be saved

he shall be saved;

I am the door

by Me if any man en­ter in

He shall be saved

he shall be saved.

O what shall I do to be saved?

No light

no hope can I see

No help in my­self can I find;

Is there no mer­cy for me

Is there no mer­cy for me?

O what shall I do to be saved?

So vile

so bur­dened with sin

O how to the fold may I come

How may I en­ter therein

How may I en­ter therein?

I en­ter the wide op­en door

In Christ I now have be­lieved;

I’m cleansed from my sins by His blood;

I trust

and now I am saved

I trust

and now I am saved!
