The Narrow Door
September 27, 2025 - 6:58am — Stephen DeCesare
“The Narrow Door” is a solemn and powerful hymn based on Luke 13:22–30. Rooted in Christ’s call to repentance and vigilance, this hymn confronts the great reversal of the Kingdom: the last shall be first, and the door will not remain open forever. With language that challenges and inspires, it’s ideal for penitential seasons, end-times meditations, or Gospel-focused worship.
