Calvary Songs ‎#86a

86a. Let the Saviour In

1 Lo! he's knocking at every heart,—
Let the Saviour in!
Shall we tell him he must depart?—
Let the Saviour in!
He is waiting beside your door,
He is pleading forevermore!
Your sweet welcome he doth implore,—
Let the Saviour in!

2 Would ye turn him in grief away?
Let the Saviour in!
Sister, brother, do not delay,—
Let the Saviour in!
He is mighty to save and keep!
He will comfort the eyes that weep!
In his presence how sweet our sleep!—
Let the Saviour in!

3 Take him fondly unto your breast,—
Let the Saviour in!
He will give to the weary rest,—
Let the Saviour in!
Shall his summons be heard in vain?
Shall we turn him away again?
Ye who linger in doubt and pain,
Let the Saviour in!
