Why Keep Jesus Waiting?
Author: Christopher C. Cline Meter: 11.11.11 Appears in 33 hymnals First Line: Why keep Jesus waiting, waiting in the cold? Lyrics: 1 Why keep Jesus waiting, waiting in the cold?
He will bear you gently, gently to His fold;
See Him, soul, and open, open, I implore.
2 Why keep Jesus waiting, waiting at the door?
Oft He knocketh softly, woftly, o’er and o’er;
Hear Him, soul, and open, open, I implore.

He would be your Savior, ever, evermore;
Love Him, soul, and open, open, I implore.

Come, poor soul, obey Him, open, I implore.

Why Keep Jesus Waiting?
Don’t Keep Jesus Waiting
Author: Rev. G. W. Crofts Appears in 18 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Don’t keep Jesus waiting,
Waiting evermore,
Hark! He knocketh softly
At thy bosom’s door;
Haste that door to open,
Open, I implore.
2 Don’t keep Jesus waiting,
Waiting at the door,
How He suffered for thee,
All thy sins He bore;
Bid Him freely enter,
Bid Him, I implore.
3 Don’t keep Jesus waiting,
Friend He is and more,
As thy Savior loves thee,
None e’er loved before;
Do not turn Him from thee,
Do not, I implore.
4 Don’t keep Jesus waiting,
Till the day is o’er,
Sad, should Jesus leave thee,
Leave thee evermore;
Wide the door fling open,
Open, I implore. Topics: Invitation Used With Tune: [Don’t keep Jesus waiting]
