Behold Me standing at the door

Behold Me standing at the door,
And hear Me pleading evermore,
With gentle voice: Oh, heart of sin,
May I come in? may I come in?

Behold Me standing at the door,
And hear Ale pleading evermore:
Say, weary heart, oppressed with sin,
May I come in? may I come in?

I bore the cruel thorns for thee,
I waited long and patiently:
Say, weary heart, oppressed with sin.
May I come in? may I come in?

Behold Me standing at the door,
And hear Ale pleading evermore:
Say, weary heart, oppressed with sin,
May I come in? may I come in?

I would not plead with thee in vain;
Remember all My grief and pain!
I died to ransom thee from sin:
May I come in? may I come in?

Behold Me standing at the door,
And hear Ale pleading evermore:
Say, weary heart, oppressed with sin,
May I come in? may I come in?

I bring thee joy from heaven above,
I bring thee pardon, peace, and love:
Say, weary heart, oppressed with sin,
May I come in? may I come in?

Behold Me standing at the door,
And hear Ale pleading evermore:
Say, weary heart, oppressed with sin,
May I come in? may I come in?
