Who at my door is standing,
Patiently drawing near,
Entrance within demanding?
Whose is the voice I hear?
Sweetly the tones are falling;
“Open the door for me!
If thou wilt heed my calling,
I will abide with thee.”
2. All through the dark hours dreary,
Knocking again is He;
Jesus, art Thou not weary,
waiting so long for me?
Sweetly the tones are falling;
“Open the door for me!
3. Door of my heart, I hasten!
Thee will I open wide.
Though he rebuke and chasten,
He shall with me abide.
Sweetly the tones are falling;
“Open the door for me!
