Refrain: O wonderful dream, O beautiful dream, That ev’ry one can make true, He is living with me, my Saviour is He, Will you ask Him to live with you? 2 I felt at a glance He would be my friend, That my life would be full of cheer, The visit began, never more to end, For the Christ is my comrade dear. [Refrain] 3 Let Jesus be Guest in your home today, Just to know Him will be to live. A soul full of song will be yours alway, That the Saviour alone can give. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [I dreamed that a stranger once came to my door]
