His Open Door

I look upon the altar, and I see
A door in monstrance open to us all,
A two-way door for those who bend their knee
To Jesus, speaks to us with Lazarus call.

And when He calls us forth, He bids us come
To let Him enter us and take us in,
And when we do we and the world become
An Eden New with our forgiven sin.

We look around and see the world anew—
The way it’s always been since time began—
And we know now the truth we never knew:
He came and made the world His Promised Land.

The open door of monstrance makes us sing
Of Trinity–live in eternal ring.
