1 My heart was closed to Jesus, Of his love I could not sing; My life gave back no answer To the knock of Christ my King.
Refrain: O the knocking of the King, O the knocking of the King; I’m happy since I listened To the knocking of the King.
2 But O the love of Jesus Unto me such joy did bring, When I my heart did open To the knock of Christ my King. [Refrain]
3 My life I yield to Jesus, Of his love and praise I sing; I’m happy since I listened To the knock of Christ my King. [Refrain]
4 How sweet to live for Jesus, Unto him alone I cling, Since my sad heart made answer To the knock of Christ my King. [Refrain]Source: New Songs of the Gospel: for use in all religious meetings #67
