283. O Jesus, Thou Art Standing

SDA Hymnal

Verse 1

O Jesus, thou art standing,

Outside the fast closed door,

In lowly patience waiting

To pass the threshold o’er:

O shame, professing Christians,

His Name and sign who bear,

O shame, thrice shame upon us,

To keep him standing there!

Verse 1

O Jesus, thou art knocking;

And lo, that hand is scarred,

And thorns thy brow encircle,

And tears thy face have marred:

O love that passeth knowledge,

So patiently to wait!

O sin that hath no equal,

So fast to bar the gate!

Verse 2

O Jesus, thou art pleading

In accents meek and low,

“I died for you, my children,

And will you treat me so?”

O Lord, with shame and sorrow

We open now the door;

Dear Savior, enter, enter,

And leave us never more.
