Sinner, didst thou hear it?
’Tis the Sav­ior’s call,
Standing, knock­ing, wait­ing,
Christ, the Lord of all;
Seeking for an en­trance
In that heart of thine,
Pleading to trans­form thee
By His grace di­vine.

Refrain

Standing, knock­ing, wait­ing,
Hear His gen­tle voice;
’Tis the Sav­ior call­ing,
Make to­day your choice.

Tender is His ac­cent,
Winning is His tone,
Standing, knock­ing, wait­ing,
Wants thee for a son.
Father’s house of man­sions,
Beautiful and fair,
Stands in gran­deur wait­ing,
He would sup you there.

Refrain

Oh, canst thou re­fuse Him,
Knocking day by day?
Standing, knock­ing, wait­ing,
Yield with­out de­lay;
Yes, the Lord Al­migh­ty,
Humbled in the dust,
Beggeth thee as so­ver­eign,
Take Me as thy guest.

Refrain
