MHB 331 – BEHOLD Me standing at the door

Methodist-Hymns-331

1: BEHOLD Me standing at the door,
And hear Me pleading evermore,
With gentle voice: O heart of sin,
May I come in? May I come in?

Behold Me standing at the door,
And hear Me pleading evermore:
Say, weary heart, oppressed with sin,
May I come in? May I come in?

2: I bore the cruel thorns’ for thee,
I waited long and patiently:
Say, weary heart, oppressed with sin,
May I come in? May I come in?

3: I would not plead with thee in vain;
Remember all My grief and pain!
I died to ransom thee from sin,
May I come in? May I come in?

4: I bring thee joy from heaven above,
I bring thee pardon, peace, and love:
Say, weary heart, oppressed with sin,
May I come in? May I come in?
