The One that is holy,
The One who has the key;
And able to solely,
Open the door to see.
But no one else can shut,
Nor are able to lock;
Not even a bandit,
Who would brag as they talk.
Christ knows what you have done,
And opened up the door;
Before you since you won,
To see the distant shore.
You have a little strength,
But have paid attention;
To persevere the length,
Because of salvation.
You deny not His name,
Every living day;
As you reach to proclaim,
Through your trust to obey.
He makes those who embark,
In the place of Satan;
To suffer in the dark,
Until they straighten.
A footstool for His feet,
Until they will realize;
About their true defeat,
The deceit and the lies.
Because you have obeyed,
His command to endure;
Strengthened as you prayed,
For opening the door.
He knows you do your best,
I you live in this place;
Since you have passed the test,
He will give you His grace.
