Author: Jennie Morton Hymnal: Songs of Christian Service #85 (1903) First Line: Jesus is softly knocking Refrain First Line: Just now throw open the door Lyrics: 1 Jesus is softly knocking,
Let him come in, let him come in;
List to his tender pleading,
Let the dear Saviour in.
Just now throw open the door,
Let him come in, let him come in;
Just now he waits to forgive,
Let the dear Saviour in.
2 Are you too heavy laden?
Let him come in, let him come in;
Jesus will bear your burden,
Let the dear Saviour in.
Just now throw open the door,
Let him come in, let him come in;
Just now he waits to forgive,
Let the dear Saviour in.
3 Are you so weary weeping?
Let him come in, let him come in;
Jesus will bear your sorrow,
Let the dear Saviour in.
Just now throw open the door,
Let him come in, let him come in;
Just now he waits to forgive,
Let the dear Saviour in.
4 Open to him the portal,
Let him come in, let him come in;
You will receive his blessing,
Let the dear Saviour in.
Just now I open the door,
Saviour, come in, Saviour, come in;
Just now I know he forgives,
Jesus has entered in. Tune Title: [Jesus is softly knocking]
