Shall I Let Him In?

Christ is knock­ing at my sad heart;

Shall I let Him in?

Patiently plead­ing with my sad heart;

Oh! shall I let Him in?

Cold and proud is my heart with sin;

Dark and cheer­less is all with­in;

Christ is bid­ding me turn un­to Him

Oh! shall I let Him in?

Shall I send Him the lov­ing word;

Shall I let Him in?

Meekly ac­cept­ing my gra­cious Lord;

Oh! shall I let Him in?

He can in­fi­nite love im­part;

He can par­don this re­bel heart;

Shall I bid Him for­ev­er de­part

Or shall I let Him in?

Yes

I’ll op­en this heart’s proud door

Yes

I’ll let him in;

Gladly I’ll wel­come Him ev­er­more;

Oh! yes

I’ll let him in.

Blessèd Sav­ior

ab­ide with me;

Cares and tri­als will light­er be:

I am safe if I’m on­ly with Thee

Oh! bless­èd Lord

come in.
