The Door of Your Heart

Will you op­en the door of your heart to­night?

Outside Je­sus pa­tient­ly stands;

He is gra­cious­ly wait­ing

how can you Him slight?

He’s knock­ing with nail pierc­èd hands.

Just op­en the door of your heart to­night

For Je­sus now seeks you to win;

He is wait­ing out­side

Swing the door op­en wide

And glad­ly He’ll en­ter in.

Will you op­en the door of your heart to­night?

Oh soul

will you long­er de­lay?

When the Sav­ior can free you from sin’s aw­ful blight

There’s dan­ger and death in your way.

Will you op­en the door of your heart to­night?

God’s Spir­it is striv­ing with­in;

He may nev­er again with your stub­born will fight

But leave you to per­ish in sin.

Will you op­en the door of your heart to­night?

Don’t send the dear Sav­ior away;

Lest He leave you for­ev­er con­demned in God’s sight

That aw­ful reck­on­ing day.
