Jesus Knocks at Thy Heart

Lo! Je­sus pa­tien­tly knocks at the door

Knocks at thy heart

knocks at thy heart;

Open to­day and re­sist Him no more

Lest He for­ev­er de­part.

Knocking to­day

knock­ing to­day;

Jesus is knock­ing

Is knock­ing for en­trance to­day.

Open the door and say

Mas­ter

come in

Come and abide

come and ab­ide;

He will re­deem thee and cleanse from all sin

He will be with thee to guide.

Jesus stands wait­ing and pleads with thee still;

Open to­day

op­en to­day;

How canst thou treat the dear Sav­ior so ill?

How canst thou turn Him away?

Open the door of thy heart and find rest

Find it today

find it to­day;

Let Him but en­ter and thou shalt be blest;

Why wilt thou long­er delay?
