Knocking on the Door – v2


When we make the conscious act
to say yes to our Savior
opening the gift, transformed
move into the home, the house of God

Answering the call of the father
ever present welcome
and offer of justifying grace

Where we can live, grow,
find our call, our gifts,
our place in the kingdom
this is what God gives
