Why-do they shut me out of heaven? lyrics

Why—do they shut Me out of Heaven?

Did I sing—too loud?

But—I can say a little "Minor"

Timid as a Bird!

Wouldn't the Angels try me

Just—once—more

Just—see—if I troubled them

But don't—shut the door!

Oh, if I—were the Gentleman

In the "White Robe"

And they—were the little Hand—that knocked

Could—I—forbid?
