Brother, at the threshold standing,
See you not the open door?
And the Saviour's hand extended,
Reaching out to help you o'er?

See the banquet hall of mercy,
See thy seat that vacant stands;
Think of loved ones waiting for thee,
See them now with beck'ning hands.

Keep thy Lord no longer waiting,
He hath died thy soul to win;
Let His love, thy heart constraining,
Lead thee now to enter in.

Just a step— will you not take it,
While in prayer to God we bow?
Will you not, your sin forsaking,
Trust in Chris and trust Him now?

Chorus:
Take the step, my brother, take it;
Take the step and yield to God;
Rise! and Christ confess as Saviour;
Take the step and trust His word.
