Behold a Stranger at the Door

Author: Joseph Grigg Hymnal: LH1941 #650 (1941) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Behold a Stranger at the door! Lyrics: 1 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. 2 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. 3 O lovely attitude! He stands With melting heart and laden hands; O matchless kindness! and He shows This matchless kindness to His foes. 4 Admit Him ere His anger burn; His feet, departing, ne'er return; Admit Him, or the hour's at hand When at His door denied you'll stand. 5 Oh, let the heavenly Stranger in, Let in thy heart His reign begin. Admit Him, open wide the door, And He will bless thee evermore. Amen. Topics: Carols and Spiritual Songs Scripture: Revelation 3:20 Languages: English Tune Title: HAMBURG

Behold the Savior of Mankind

Author: Samuel Wesley, Sr. Hymnal: LH1941 #176 (1941) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Behold the Savior of mankind Nailed to the shameful tree! How vast the love that Him inclined To bleed and die for thee! 2 Hark how he groans while nature shakes, And earth's strong pillars bend! The Temple's veil in sunder breaks, The solid marbles rend. 3 'Tis done; the precious ransom's paid; "Receive my soul!" He cries. See where He bows His sacred head; He bows His head and dies! 4 But soon He'll break death's envious chain, And in full glory shine. O Lamb of God, was ever pain, Was ever love, like Thine? Amen.
