Hymn 437 - Who at My Door Is Standing?

Who at my door is standing,

Patiently drawing near,

Entrance within demanding?

Whose is the voice I hear?

Lonely without He’s staying;

Lonely within am I;

While I am still delaying,

Will He not pass me by?

All through the dark hours dreary,

Knocking again is He;

Jesus, art Thou not weary,

Waiting so long for me?

Door of my heart, I hasten!

Thee will I open wide.

Though He rebuke and chasten,

He shall with me abide.

REFRAIN

Sweetly the tones are falling; 

“Open the door for Me!

If thou wilt heed My calling,

I will abide with thee.”
