Door
Philip Doddridge • English
Primary Scripture: Hosea 2:15
Verse 1
Awake, our souls, and bless his name, Whose mercies never fail; Who opens wide a door of hope In Achor's gloomy vale.
Verse 2
Behold the portal wide display'd, The building strong and fair; Within are pastures fresh and green, And living streams are there.
Verse 3
Enter, my soul, with cheerful haste, For Jesus is the door; Nor fear the serpent's wily arts, Nor fear the lion's roar.
Verse 4
O may thy grace the nations lead, And Jews and Gentiles come, All trav'ling thro' one beauteous gate To one eternal home.
