God’s Lamb is knocking doors today <br />No longer on The Tree <br />He’s calling sheep who’ve gone astray <br />He’s calling you and me <br /> <br />He’s calling us to look inside <br />Explore our bowels of shame <br />To query things we seek to hide <br />God’s anger could inflame <br /> <br />Too long we’ve lived a foolish lie <br />Too long we’ve failed to see <br />Believing till the day we die <br />That Heaven cannot be <br /> <br />Too long we’ve laughed our God to scorn <br />Spitting in Jesus’ face <br />Filling the devil’s cup and horn <br />Living in deep disgrace <br /> <br />Though eighty years within a pew <br />Or in a house of whores <br />To share His love through life anew <br />God’s knocking still our doors <br /> <br />The blood of Christ’s still calling out <br />His arms are open wide <br />Hoping today we’ll turn about <br />And walk to love inside <br /> <br />Who’ll open God their tainted door? <br />Bid Heaven’s Light within? <br />Set true their course for Heaven’s shore? <br />Away from wilful sin <br /> <br />Who’ll tell The Lord they wish to live? <br />Cease now to disobey? <br />Accept the cross He’ll choose to give <br />And walk the narrow way<br /><br />Michael P.
