Don't Knock Songtext
You don′t knock (You don't knock, you just walk on in)
The door (The door to Heaven′s den)
There's love (There's love and joy for you)
To share (To share the whole day through)
I know (I know my friends are there)
To rest (To rest in the Heaven′s nest)
You don′t knock, ring, push or hold
The door's wide open, waiting for you
So you don′t knock
You just walk on in
I've walked life′s winding road (Oh yeah)
Short to reach this goal (Oh yeah)
Traveled both night and day (Oh yeah)
So tired I could hardly breathe (Yeah)
Jesus, my light and my guide (Oh yeah)
Ever by my side (Oh yeah)
So I'm walking, not knocking into Heaven with pride
You don′t knock (You don't knock, you just walk on in)
The door (The door to Heaven's den)
There′s love (There′s love and joy for you)
To share (To share the whole day through)
I know (I know my friends are there)
To rest (To rest in the Heaven's nest)
You don′t knock, ring, push or hold
The door's wide open, waiting for you
So you don′t knock
You just walk on in
I have no need to fear (Oh yeah)
He is ever near (Oh yeah)
He'll know my work was true (Oh yeah)
So glad the day is through (Yeah)
It wasn′t for me to stay (Oh yeah)
Didn't think I'd make my way (Oh yeah)
So I′m walking, not knocking into Heaven, goodbye
You don′t knock (You don't knock, you just walk on in)
The door (The door to Heaven′s den)
There's love (There′s love and joy for you)
To share (To share the whole day through)
I know (I know my friends are there)
To rest (To rest in the Heaven's nest)
You don′t knock, ring, push or hold
The door's wide open, waiting for you
So you don't knock
You just walk on in
The door (The door to Heaven′s den)
There's love (There's love and joy for you)
To share (To share the whole day through)
I know (I know my friends are there)
To rest (To rest in the Heaven′s nest)
You don′t knock, ring, push or hold
The door's wide open, waiting for you
So you don′t knock
You just walk on in
I've walked life′s winding road (Oh yeah)
Short to reach this goal (Oh yeah)
Traveled both night and day (Oh yeah)
So tired I could hardly breathe (Yeah)
Jesus, my light and my guide (Oh yeah)
Ever by my side (Oh yeah)
So I'm walking, not knocking into Heaven with pride
You don′t knock (You don't knock, you just walk on in)
The door (The door to Heaven's den)
There′s love (There′s love and joy for you)
To share (To share the whole day through)
