��William Walsh am How (1823-1S07).

O JESUS, thou art standing Outside the fast-closed door, In lowly patience waiting

To pass the threshold o'er : Shame on us, Christian brothers,

His name and sign who bear, shame, thrice shame upon us, To keep him standing there !

Jesus, thou art knocking : And lo ! that hand is scarred,

And thorns thy brow encircle, And tears thy face Lave marred.

��love that passeth knowledge,

So patiently to wait ! sin that hath no equal,

So fast to bar the gate !

Jesus, thou art pleading

In accents meek and low,
 * I died for you, my children,

And will ye treat me so ? ' Lord, with shame and sorrow

We open now the door : Dear Saviour, enter, enter,

And leave us nevermore.
