Jesus Will Let You In

Come to the Father’s house,
Come ere the day be gone;
Tempests are gath’ring fast,
Darkness is coming on.

Refrain

Fly, for the tempest is coming,
Sweeping the fields of sin;
Knock at the portals of mercy,
Jesus will let you in.

Look at the weary way,
Look where thy feet have trod,
Finding no rest nor peace,
Wand’ring away from God.

Refrain

Haste from the fields of sin,
Fly for thy life today;
Come to our Father’s house;
Enter the narrow way.

Refrain

This hymn is also known by its first line 'Come to the Father's house'. It is one of the many gospel songs written by Fanny Crosby (Frances Jane Crosby, 1820–1915). Some hymnals and collections attribute it to her under the pseudonym 'F. J. Van Alstyne'. Alternate attributions are rare; a few older collections list it simply as 'anonymous'.
