You don't knock, ring, punch a hole
The door's wide open waiting for your soul
You don't knock 
You just walk on in

I've walked life's winding road 
Sure to live this load  
I traveled both the night and the day 
So tired I could hardly pray 
Jesus, by the light and guide 
He's ever on my side
I'm just a-waiting and a-knocking into heaven with pride

You don't knock (you don't knock, just walk on in)
The door (the door into heaven's inn)
There's love (there's love and joy for you)
To share (to share the whole day through)
And I know (I know my friends are there) 
To rest (to rest in the heaven's nest)
You don't knock, ring, punch a hole
The door's wide open waiting for your soul
You don't knock 
You just walk on in

I'll have no need to fear (oh, yeah)
He's always near (oh, yeah)
He knows my work is true (oh, yeah)
So glad that day is through (yeah)
But it wasn't for me to say (oh, yeah)
I didn't think I'd make my way (oh, yeah)
So, I'm a-walking and a-knocking, to heaven with pride

You don't knock (you don't knock, just walk on in)
The door (the door into heaven's inn)
There's love (there's love and joy for you)
To share (to share the whole day through)
And I know (I know my friends are there) 
To rest (to rest in the heaven's nest)
You don't knock, ring, punch a hole
The door's wide open waiting for your soul
You don't knock 
You just walk on in
