The Savior's Hand

Representative Text

1 The Savior's hand is knocking,
Is knocking at thy heart;
O sinner bid Him welcome,
Lest grieved He should depart.

Chorus:
Knocking, knocking, knocking,
And longing to come in;
Oh! brother bid Him welcome,
He'll cleanse thy heart from sin.

2 Hast thou not heard Him knocking,
At morning, noon and night?
Arise, and bid Him enter,
His presence giveth light. [Chorus]

3 The wounded hand of Jesus,
He offers now to thee;
To save, to guide, to keep the
Thro' all eternity. [Chorus]
