Representative Text

1 Open the windows! the blessings come down
In bountiful showers of grace from above!
Make room to receive from the bountiful hand
Of infinite mercy, the gifts of His love.

Refrain:
Open the windows, open the windows!
Backward the darkness shall roll!
Open the windows, open the windows!
Hungry and famishing soul.

2 Banish the tempter, bid doubtings depart!
No longer remain in the shadow and gloom;
Throw backward the shade, draw the curtains aside,
And glory on glory will enter the room. [Refrain]

3 Showers of blessings are falling on thee,
Such blessings as thou hast not room to contain,
Of goodness and mercy, of pardon and peace,
To measure the fullness, our knowledge is vain. [Refrain]

4 Open the windows, O struggleing soul!
Now streams o’er thy prison a flood of delight.
Oh, let in the sunlight of infinite love,
To scatter thy darkness and banish thy night. [Refrain]
