You can lock Him out, leave Him in the cold
Even though His love's what you're made for
Act like you're not home, He knows where you are
But even then He won't break down your door
You've been runnin' all your life
But His mercy takes its time
He won't stop knockin', won't stop callin'
Don't look away when we start fallin'
Yeah, His love has never been the give-up kind
He won't stop chasin', won't stop waitin'
No, He don't run out of patience
Yeah, He'll give a second chance ten thousand times
He goes that far 'cause He knows our hearts
Only open from the inside
I know You've got Your doubts
But He can wait 'em out
He's already set His heart on You
You will never change His mind
'Cause His love's the jealous kind
He won't stop knockin', won't stop callin'
Don't look away when we start fallin'
Yeah, His love has never been the give-up kind
He won't stop chasin', won't stop waitin'
No, He don't run out of patience
Yeah, He'll give a second chance ten thousand times
He goes that far 'cause He knows our hearts
Only open from the inside
Only open from the inside
Oh, what a perfect mystery
Oh, He made the door and then He handed us the key
He won't stop knockin', won't stop callin'
Don't look away when we start fallin'
Yeah, His love has never been the give-up kind
He won't stop chasin', won't stop waitin'
No, He don't run out of patience
Yeah, He'll give a second chance ten thousand times
He goes that far 'cause He knows our hearts
Yeah, He goes that far 'cause He knows our hearts
Only open from the inside
They only open from the inside
They only open from the inside
