O Jesus, Thou Art Standing -ghf238.mid - [Play Midi]

1. O Jesus, Thou art standing outside the fast-closed door,
   In lowly patience waiting to pass the threshold o'er:
   Shame on us, Christian brothers, His Name and sign who bear,
   O shame, thrice shame upon us, To keep Him standing there!

2. O Jesus, Thou are knocking - And lo! that hand is scarred,
   And thorns Thy brow encircle, The tears Thy face have marred:
   O love that passeth knowledge, So patiently to wait!
   O sin that has no equal, So fast to bar the gate!

3. O Jesus, Thou are pleading in accents meek and low,
   "I died for you, My children, And will ye treat Me so?"
   O Lord, with shame and sorrow we open now the door;
   Dear Savior, enter, enter, And leave us never-more!
