"Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear My voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with Me." Rev. 3:2020Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. (Revelation 3:20).
I am standing outside thy door tonight,
Seeking thy heart to win;
The world, for a while, has withdrawn its light,
Wilt thou open and let Me in?
I have traveled far on a lonely road,
In sorrow and agony;
I have borne sin's heavy, crushing load,
All for the sake of thee!
I am standing to plead with thee tonight,
While the dews of evening fall;
O'er the moaning and surging waves of life
Dost thou hear My yearning call?
I would free thy soul from the chains of earth,
From its care, its sorrow, its sin,
I would give thee joy, for its hollow mirth
Wilt thou open, and let Me in?
From the glorious heights of heaven I came,
To seek thee, and to save;
But the world, it gave Me a cross of shame
And a lonely, borrowed grave.
I left My radiant home above,
All for the sake of thee;
I have died to prove My deep, deep love,
Wilt thou open the door to me?
Thou hast wandered far in the paths of sin,
Thou art weary and sad and lone;
But My blood can cleanse, and My love can win,
May I make thine heart My own?
The world it has given thee care and pain—
Oft famine and misery;
I offer thee treasures of priceless gain,
Wilt thou open the door to Me?
"I AM THE DOOR: BY ME IF ANY MAN ENTER IN, HE SHALL BE SAVED, AND SHALL GO IN AND OUT, AND FIND PASTURE.”
"NEITHER IS THERE SALVATION IN ANY OTHER: FOR THERE IS NONE OTHER NAME UNDER HEAVEN GIVEN AMONG MEN, WHEREBY WE MUST BE SAVED.”
