O, let us exalt our dear Lord and proclaim,
In songs of true gratitude, praise to His name!
As songs of the angels in sweetest accord,
Our thanks and our praises shall rise to the Lord.

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.
