[VERSE 1]
These are the words of the Holy, the True
Holding the key none other can use
What I open stands firm and stays
What I close no hand can raise
I saw you stand when the pressure came
Little strength but you held My name
The world pushed hard, you would not bend
You stayed with Me until the end
[PRE CHORUS]
I saw the nights that wore you thin
I heard each prayer you whispered in
Hear Me now, I’m making it clear
What I open stays open here
[CHORUS]
I set an open door before you now
No power on earth can shut it down
Hold to My name, don’t turn away
You kept the faith, you chose to stay
I set an open door before you now
Grace like a river pouring down
Stand with Me, don’t lose your place
Faith like yours will lead the way
[VERSE 2]
They spoke loud but they never knew
Who walked each battle through with you
They’ll see My love upon your life
They’ll know My hand kept you through strife
You kept My word, refused the lies
Held onto truth through every trial
So when the earth is torn by fear
My shelter will be standing near
[PRE CHORUS]
I’m coming soon, don’t lose your hold
What I have given’s more than gold
Stand firm now, don’t trade it away
My promise lives and it will stay
[CHORUS]
I set an open door before you now
No power on earth can shut it down
Hold to My name, don’t turn away
You kept the faith, you chose to stay
I set an open door before you now
Grace like a river pouring down
Stand with Me, don’t lose your place
Faith like yours will lead the way
[BRIDGE]
You’ll stand like pillars in My house
No fear of leaving, none cast out
My Father’s name upon you stays
Your life secured through endless days
The city comes in blazing light
New Jerusalem shining bright
Marked as Mine for all of time
Forever yours and forever Mine
He who hears, receive the call
Let the Spirit speak to all
Hold fast
Stand strong
Hold fast
Stand strong
[FINAL CHORUS]
I set an open door before you now
No power on earth can shut it down
Hold to My name, don’t turn away
You kept the faith, you chose to stay
I set an open door before you now
Grace like a river pouring down
Stand with Me, don’t lose your place
Faith like yours will lead the way
