The Open Door

There is a door that's always open
to all that come and knock.
The door to eternal life,
that Satan tries to block.

But who's afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?
Not I! Not I! Not I!
Because we know how that story ends!
And there's no need to fear, my friends.

So open that door and hear Jesus say,
"Come in! Come In! This is your day!"
"So I opened the door and entered.
And the line behind me grew
to a life redeeming and new. 

"Seek and you shall find.
Knock and the door will
be opened to you."  Matt. 7:7
