Runyan Hymnal: Hymns of Faith #105 (1980) Lyrics: 1 Lord, I have shut the door, Speak now the word Which in the din and throng Could not be heard; Hushed now my inner heart, Whisper Thy will, While I have come apart, While all is still. 2 Lord, I have shut the door, Here do I bow; Speak, for my soul attend Turns to Thee now. Rebuke Thou what is vain, Counsel my soul, Thy holy will reveal, My will control. 3 In this blest quietness Clamorings cease; Here in Thy presence dwells Infinite peace; Yonder, the strife and cry, Yonder, the sin: Lord, I have shut the door, Thou art within! 4 Lord, I have shut the door, Strengthen my heart; Yonder awaits the task-- I share a part. Only through grace bestowed May I be true; Here, while alone with Thee, My strength renew. Amen.
