Dundee

Author: J. Addison Appears in 1,003 hymnals First Line: When all thy mercies, O my God Lyrics: 1 When all thy mercies, O my God, My rising soul surveys, Transported with the view, I'm lost In wonder, love, and praise. 2 O how can words with equal warmth The gratitude declare, That glows within my ravished heart? But thou canst read it there. 3 When in the slipp'ry paths of youth, With heedless steps I ran, Thine arm, unseen, conveyed me safe, And led me up to man. 4 Thro' ev'ry period of my life Thy goodness I'll pursue; And after death, in distant worlds, The pleasing theme renew.

He's knocking at the door to come in; He wants an invitation to cross your threshold o'er, Then Jesus will save you from all sin. 2 How often when in sickness, your body racked with pain, This knocking has resounded in your ears; How often in the night time the knock would come again, So loud it would fill your soul with fears. [Chorus] 3 While standing by the casket of some departed friend, With sorrow your poor heart was sick and sore; What caused that train of thinking of how your life would end? That hand was then knocking at the door. [Chorus] 4 Why will you keep him knocking? why won't you let him in? He'll overflow your pathway with delight; That hand so torn and bleeding will wash away your sin, Oh, welcome the Saviour in tonight.
