  1. I stood outside the gate,
    A poor way-faring child;
    Within my heart there beat
    A tempest loud and wild;
    A fear oppressed my soul,
    That I might be too late;
    And, oh, I trembled sore,
    And prayed outside the gate.
  2. “O Mercy!” loud I cried,
    “Now give me rest from sin!”
    “I will,” a voice replied,
    And Mercy let me in:
    She bound my bleeding wounds,
    And soothed my heart oppressed,
    She washed away my guilt,
    And gave me peace and rest.
  3. In Mercy’s guise I knew
    The Savior long abused,
    Who often sought my heart,
    And wept when I refused;
    Oh, what a blest return
    For all my years of sin!
    I stood outside the gate,
    And Jesus let me in.
