Open Your Door.

Open Your Door.
Open the door of your house:
Hoard not it's splendor and its space.
Its heart-ease or its stately g,ace,
Nor hold it an abiding place
For you alone.
suppose God kept his heaven for him
And left sou in the shadows dim
With wisp of light and snatch OF
symn?
Open your door.
open the door of your heart;
Shut not your sympathy away
From those who need II day by day;
Reach out a hand and bid them stay
Within your love.
Suppose that should ore day come
Devoid OF hope m starved II numb,
And cry for love. n get a crnmb?
Open your door.
Open h door Of your soul:
Hide not the spark Of faith divine.
The sweet. pure hope that is the sign
OF God-head tender and benign.
That mar. retains.
Suppose one came in sorest plight,
Came cropping through the spirits
night
And lost his way for lack Of light
Because you hid Your lamp from
sight"
Open your door!
