Lyrics
Behold a Stranger at the door!
He gently knocks, has knocked before,
Has waited long, is waiting still;
You treat no other friend so ill.
O lovely attitude! He stands
With melting heart and laden hands:
O matchless kindness! and He shows
This matchless kindness to His foes.
But will He prove a Friend indeed?
He will; the very Friend you need:
The Friend of sinners, yes, 'tis He,
With garments dyed on Calvary.
Rise, touch'd with gratitude divine;
Turn out His enemy and thine,
That souldestroying monster, Sin;
And let the heav'nly Stranger in.
He gently knocks, has knocked before,
Has waited long, is waiting still;
You treat no other friend so ill.
O lovely attitude! He stands
With melting heart and laden hands:
O matchless kindness! and He shows
This matchless kindness to His foes.
But will He prove a Friend indeed?
He will; the very Friend you need:
The Friend of sinners, yes, 'tis He,
With garments dyed on Calvary.
Rise, touch'd with gratitude divine;
Turn out His enemy and thine,
That souldestroying monster, Sin;
And let the heav'nly Stranger in.
