16641. Open Wide The Window

1 Leave off weep­ing, op­en wide the win­dow;
Look t’ward Je­ru­sa­lem to­day;
Christ is ris­en, ban­ish­ing the dark­ness;
Look t’ward the Light, and pray.

Refrain:
Open wide the win­dow;
Let the light shine in, let the light shine in,
Driving out our sad­ness,
Healing all the wounds of sin.

2 Leave off sigh­ing, op­en wide the win­dow,
Bid Je­sus wel­come, bid Him stay;
Join the an­them, sing aloud "Ho­sanna";
Look t’ward the Light, and pray. [Refrain]

3 Singing, pray­ing, op­en wide the win­dow;
Peace to your soul His life will give;
Christ is ris­en! tell abroad the mes­sage;
Look t’ward the Light, and live. [Refrain]
