Laurie Maitland - Open The Door Lyrics
To Jesus, your son, your gift of loveMay be the holy doorGod uses to open the heart of a childLove is the key that unlocks the doorWhen I'm closing in, your perfect smileCan open the door to this heart of mineWhen Jesus knocks at the door of your heartRedeemer of heaven and earthOpen the door and invite Him inHe will give you new life and rebirthHe'll give you the spirit to live in your heartThe greatest gift that ever will beNot only for life here on this earthBut forever in eternityDon't leave me strandedOutside in the coldDuring wintertimeI need you to keep me warmOpen the door and let me in'Cause I need you to talk to meWhen I'm locked up deep insideOpen the door and let me inWhen I'm tied up in a bondageAnd there is no way of breaking freeHear me calling out your nameCome on over, babyOpen the door when you turn the keyWhen you walk by, you hear somebody elseKnocking on heaven's doorSo, open the door and let Him inBecause He needs your love once moreIf there's no peace or joy in your lifeAnd life seems too hard to endureListen, my friend, when you hear the knockHe's waiting, so open the doorAnd let Him inBecause He wants your loveLike Uncle SamMore and more each dayOpen the door and let me in'Cause I need to have you next to meWhen I seem so far awayAnd nobody wants to be aloneSo I need somebody in my lifeJust to come to my rescueI'll be coming in for moreSo come on over, babyOpen the door and let me inI'm telling you right now that this is not a jokeIt's been a long time since I waited too longHurry up; unlock the door with a key and let me inBecause I need your hugging and your kissingAnd I need your sweet lovingSo don't leave me strandedOutside in the coldAll winter longI need you once againOpen the door and let me in'Cause I need you to talk it over with meSo you can see what's going onIn the world of nowadaysAnd I need to ask you, "What's happening, brother?"That's why I need your love once moreHome is calling out your nameSo come on over, darlingOpen the door and let me in
