98. I Will Knock at the Door

1 The mistakes of my life are many,
And the sins of my heart are more;
I can scarcely see for weeping,
But still I will knock at the door.

Chorus:
Come in, come in, weary one, come in,
Come in, weary one,
The Saviour bids you come in.

2 I’m the lowest of those who love Him;
I’m the weakest of those who pray;
But I come just as He has bid me,
And He will not turn me away. [Chorus]

3 The mistakes of my life are many,
And my spirit is faint with sin;
Yet, ‘mid sorrow, I hear Thee whisper,
Come in, weary one, now come in. [Chorus]

4 All my sins Jesus will forgive me;
All my stains He will wash away;
And the feet that so oft have stumbled,
Shall tread thro’ the bright gate of day. [Chorus]
