Jésus Frappe À Votre Porte

Author: Jonathan Atchinson; Édouard Monod Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #14028 First Line: Jésus frappe à votre porte Lyrics: 1 Jésus frappe à votre porte: Ouvrez aujourd’hui! Ouvrez aujourd’hui! C’est le ciel qu’Il vous apporte! Ouvrez aujourd’hui! Ouvrez aujourd’hui! Chez vous Il veut prendre place; Ouvrez avant qu’Il se lasse! Le temps presse, le temps passe; Ouvrez aujourd’hui! Ouvrez aujourd’hui! 2 Ouvrez! c’est Lui qui pardonne: Ouvrez aujourd’hui! Ouvrez aujourd’hui! Acceptez ce qu’Il vous donne: Ouvrez aujourd’hui! Ouvrez aujourd’hui! Ses promesses sont certaines; Sa main va briser vos chaînes; Bientôt finiront vos peines: Ouvrez aujourd’hui! Ouvrez aujourd’hui! 3 Seul Il ôte les souillures: Ouvrez aujourd’hui! Ouvrez aujourd’hui! Seul Il bande les blessures: Ouvrez aujourd’hui! Ouvrez aujourd’hui! Si Satan vient vous surprendre, Seul Il pourra vous défendre Et sous son aile vous prendre: Ouvrez aujourd’hui! Ouvrez aujourd’hui! 4 Écoutez l’appel si tendre! Ouvrez aujourd’hui! Ouvrez aujourd’hui! C’est assez le faire attendre: Ouvrez aujourd’hui! Ouvrez aujourd’hui! Car le Sauveur vous implore: Comment résister encore? Oh! que votre âme l’adore! Ouvrez aujourd’hui! Ouvrez aujourd’hui! Languages: French Tune Title: [Jésus frappe à votre porte]

Let Him In

Author: Jonathan Burtch Atchinson Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #3659 First Line: There's a stranger at the door Lyrics: 1. There’s a stranger at the door, Let the Savior in, O let the Savior in; He has been there oft before, Let the Savior in, O let the Savior in. Let Him in, ere He is gone; Let Him in, the Holy One, Jesus Christ the Father’s Son, Let the Savior in, O let the Savior in. 2. Open now to Him your heart, Let the Savior in, O let the Savior in; If you wait He will depart, Let the Savior in, O let the Savior in. Let Him in, He is your friend; He your soul will sure defend, He will keep you to the end, Let the Savior in, O let the Savior in. 3. Hear you now His loving voice? Let the Savior in, O let the Savior in; Now, oh, now make Him your choice, Let the Savior in, O let the Savior in. He is standing at your door; Joy to you He will restore, And His name you will adore, Let the Savior in, O let the Savior in. 4. Now admit the heav’nly guest, Let the Savior in, O let the Savior in; He will make for you a feast, Let the Savior in, O let the Savior in. He will speak your sins forgiv’n, And when earth ties all are riv’n, He will take you home to Heav’n, Let the Savior in, O let the Savior in.
