119. Keep praying at the door

1 Keep praying at the door,
And knocking while you pray,
Nor tremble, tho' the tempter's voice
Would fright your soul away.

Refrain:
Keep praying at the door,
Still praying at the door;
Tho' long the answer is delayed,
Keep praying at the door.

2 The Lord will surely come,
His promise cannot fail;
O knock, and pray, and plead, and call,
Thy prayer will yet prevail. [Refrain]

3 The door will open wide,
And thou shalt enter in,
And from the Holy One receive
A pardon for thy sin. [Refrain]
