Then, one day, my eyes were opened
Lo. the Stranger at the door;
Who had been the constant pleader
Many days in wasted hours of yore.
Lo. the Stranger at the door;
Who had been the constant pleader
Many days in wasted hours of yore.
With trembling hands the latch was raised,
My heart's glad cry was joy:
For I had found the Saviour,
He doth now my all employ.
My heart's glad cry was joy:
For I had found the Saviour,
He doth now my all employ.
Such a kind and loving Master,
Can ne'er on earth be found;
He is guiding me to Heaven,
For to share the promised crown.
Can ne'er on earth be found;
He is guiding me to Heaven,
For to share the promised crown.
Which He Himself hath promised
To His followers here that know,
How to follow in His footsteps
And walk with Him below.
To His followers here that know,
How to follow in His footsteps
And walk with Him below.
