Refrain:
Behold, I stand at the door and knock, knock, knock, knock.
1. If any one will hear my voice
(If any one will hear my voice)
And open wide to me the door,
(And open wide to me the door,)
I will come in and sup with him,
(I will come in and sup with him,)
And he with Me forevermore.
(And he with Me forevermore.)
And he with Me forevermore, (forevermore.)
2. And shall I stand and knock in vain
(And shall I stand and knock in vain)
At thy heart’s door, O child of sin?
(At thy heart’s door, O child of sin?)
I’ve waited long and patiently,
(I’ve waited long and patiently,)
Undo the door and let me in.
(Undo the door and let me in.)
Undo the door and let me in, (and let me in.)
3. O weary heart, O trembling soul
(O weary heart, O trembling soul)
Undo the door long clos’d with sin,
(Undo the door long clos’d with sin,)
I bring you joy from heav’n above
(I bring you joy from heav’n above)
And gladly I would enter in.
(And gladly I would enter in.)
And gladly Iwould enter in, (would enter in.)
