THERE’S A STRANGER

THERE’S  A  STRANGER

 

In  this  day  and  age

Their  cry  sounds  like  a  roar

There  is  a  stranger  knocking

Would  you  open  up  the  door

 

Will  you  call  the  police

Or  silently  hide

They  say  I  know  you

Let  me  inside

 

You  take  a  peek

The  face  you  don’t  know

I  do  not  know  you

So  now  you  must  go

 

So  don’t  be  surprised

As  you  stand  at  the  gate

You’re  the  stranger  knocking

You  sealed  your  own  fate

 

  For  heaven  is  God’s  home

And  one  day  our  place

But  only  if  Jesus

Recognizes  your  face

 

“When once the Master of the house has risen up

and shut the door, and  you begin to stand outside

and knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open

for us,’ and He will answer and say to you,

‘I do not know you, where you are from.’

LUKE 13:25
