Songs of Help ‎#67

67. Knock at the Door

1 If life to you seems cold and gray,
Wait not, but turn to Christ today;
Have you not heard that Christ is kind?
Oh, sinner, seek and you shall find.

Refrain:
Knock at the door, you need not fear,
Knock at the door and Christ shall hear;
Knock at the door, knock at the door,
And you shall find peace for evermore.

2 Let not the world your courage quell;
Cast off the evil spirit’s spell;
Have you not heard that Christ is kind?
Oh, sinner, seek and you shall find. [Refrain]

3 The cross shines brightly thro’ the gloom,
And shorn of terror is the tomb;
Have you not heard that Christ is kind?
Oh, sinner, seek and you shall find. [Refrain]
