Let Him Come In
Author: C. W. Ray Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #3656 First Line: To thy barred and bolted door Refrain First Line: Let Him in; let Him in Lyrics: 1. To thy barred and bolted door,
Gently as a wooing dove,
Jesus comes as oft before,
Pleading in His tender love.
Refrain
Let Him in; let Him in;
Sinner, why not make Him room?
Let Him in; let Him in;
Lest He never more may come.
2. Haste and open wide the door,
Banish ev’ry thought of sin;
Why refuse and grieve Him more;
Quickly rise and let Him in. [Refrain]
3. He a royal feast will spread,
He will bring a boundless store;
Thou shalt taste The Living Bread,
And be blest forevermore. [Refrain]
4. He is knocking, waiting still;
Why in madness yet delay?
Why refuse His mercy till
He aggrieved shall turn away? [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [To thy barred and bolted door]
