Art thou weary, art thou languid
Appears in 643 hymnals Used With Tune: WOOD END
Art thou weary, art thou languid
In the Silent Midnight
Author: A. Cleveland Coxe Appears in 83 hymnals First Line: In the silent midnight watches Lyrics: 1 In the silent midnight watches,
List—thy bosom door!
How it knocketh, knocketh, knocketh,
Knocketh evermore!
2 Say not 'tis thy pulse is beating:
'Tis thy heart of sin;
'Tis thy Saviour knocks, and crieth,
Rise, and let me in.
3 Death comes down with reckless footstep,
To the hall and hut;
Think you death will stand a-knocking
Where the door is shut?
4 Jesus waiteth, waiteth, waiteth;
But thy door is fast!
Grieved, away thy Savior goeth:
Death breaks in at last.
5 Then 'tis thine to stand entreating
Christ to let thee in;
At the gate of heaven beating,
Wailing for thy sin.
6 Nay, alas! thou foolish virgin,
Hast thou then forgot?
Jesus waited long to know thee,
Now He knows thee not. Used With Tune: [In the silent midnight watches]
