O weary soul, the gate is near In sin why still abide? Both peace and rest are waiting here And you are just outside
Just outside the door Just outside the door Behold it stands ajar! Just outside the door Just outside the door So near and yet so far!
Forgiveness Jesus will impart To save you soul He died How can you still offend His heart By staying just outside?

The day of life is passing by Soon night your soul will hide And then "too late" will be your cry If you are just outside
Come in, be free from chains of sin Be glad, be satisfied Before the tempest breaks, come in And leave your past outside
