243. The Door of your Heart

1 Will you open the door of your heart tonight?
Outside Jesus patiently stands;
He is graciously waiting, how can you Him slight?
He's knocking with nail-pierced hands.

Refrain:
Just open the door of your heart tonight,
For Jesus now seeks you to win;
He is waiting outside,
Swing the door open wide,
And gladly He'll enter in.

2 Will you open the door of your heart tonight?
Oh, soul, will you longer delay?
When the Saviour can free you from sin's awful blight,
There's danger and death in your way. [Refrain]

3 Will you open the door of your heart tonight?
God's Spirit is striving within;
He may never again with your stubborn will fight,
But leave you to perish in sin. [Refrain]

4 Will you open the door of your heart tonight?
Do not send the dear Saviour away;
Lest He leave you for ever condemn'd in God's sight,
On the awful reckoning day. [Refrain]
