Let him in; Now, O now make him your choice, Let him in. He is standing at the door, Joy to you he will restore, And his name you will adore, Let him in. 4 Now admit the heav'nly guest, Let him in: He will make for you a feast, Let him in; He will speak your sins forgiv'n, And when earth ties all are riv'n, He will take your home to heav'n, Let him in.

While Jesus doth for sinners fight, On the cross, on the cross. 3 And now the mighty deed is done, On the cross, on the cross; The battle fought, the vict'ry won, On the cross, on the cross; "'Tis finished," now the Saviour cries; To heav'n He turns His languid eyes; Then bows His sacred head, and dies, On the cross, on the cross. 4 Where e'er I go, I'll tell the story Of the cross, of the cross; In nothing else my soul shall glory, Save the cross, save the cross; And this my constant theme shall be, Thro' time and in eternity, That Jesus shed His blood for me, On the cross, on the cross.

Rise up! thou Living Word, Thine arm of strength lay bare, That naught in me henceforth be heard But voice of praise and pray'r. 3 When thus this robber's home Becomes a house of pray'r, Do Thou with all thy power come, And dwell forever there, The hopeless ones to cheer, And broken hearts make whole; In me do thou alone appear To ev'ry sin-sick soul.
