about

Inspired by Martin Luther, who wrote, “We shall sleep until [Jesus] comes and knocks on the little grave and says, ‘Dr. Martin, get up!’”

lyrics

Give me grace, so that even in my toil...when Jesus comes knocking I’ll get up to let him in. / Give me grace, so that even when I’m wrong...when Jesus comes knocking I’ll get up to let him in. / O my soul, why do you fear? The strongest one here is one who loves you. / Give me grace, so that even in the grave...when Jesus comes knocking I’ll get up to let him in.
