Author: Mrs. H. B. Stowe Hymnal: Christ in Song #35 (1908) Hymnal Title: Christ in Song First Line: Knocking, knocking, who is there? Lyrics: 1 Knocking, knocking, who is there?
Waiting, waiting, O how fair!
'Tis a Pilgrim, strange and kingly,
Never such was seen before;
Ah! my soul, for such a wonder
Wilt thou not undo the door?
Wilt thou not undo the door?
2 Knocking, knocking, still He's there,
Waiting, waiting, wondrous fair;
But the door is hard to open,
For the weeds and ivy vine
With their dark and clinging tendrils
Ever round the hinges twice,
Ever round the hinges twice.
3 Knocking, knocking what! still there?
Waiting, waiting, grand and fair;
Yea, the wounded hand still knocketh,
And beneath the thorn-wreath'd hair
Beam the patient eyes, so tender,
Of thy Savior waiting there;
Wilt thou keep him waiting there? Topics: Invitation and Repentance; Invitation and Repentance; Invitation and Repentance; Special Selections Male Voices Languages: English Tune Title: [Knocking, knocking, who is there?]
