Allah Came Knocking At My Heart
Allah came knocking at my heart
I have no choice and played no part
But still Allah came and
Allah came knocking at my heart.
Allah came knocking with a song
He came with a message, and a message strong --
La ilaha illalah,
Words of peace from afar.
Allah came knocking with the blessed
Truth upon me they impressed,
"Let us show you a new way,
Start your journey today."
I've slipped the door open a crack
You can't go back
Once you let the sunlight in --
Alhamdullilahi rabbil alameen.
The Truth, the Peace and I were worlds apart
Until Allah came
Until Allah came knocking at my heart.
