O come to my heart, Lord Jesus: There is room in my heart for Thee! 2 Heaven's arches rang when the angels sang, Proclaiming Thy royal degree; But in lowly birth didst Thou come to earth, And in great humility. O come to my heart, Lord Jesus: There is room in my heart for Thee! 3 The foxes found rest, and the birds their nest In the shade of the forest tree; But Thy couch was the sod, O Thou Son of God, In the deserts of Galilee. O come to my heart, Lord Jesus: There is room in my heart for Thee! 4 Thou camest, O Lord, with the living Word That should set Thy people free; But with mocking scorn and with crown of thorn They bore Thee to Calvary. O come to my heart, Lord Jesus: There is room in my heart for Thee! 5 When the heavens shall ring, and the angels sing At Thy coming to victory, Let Thy voice call me home, saying, "Yet there is room, There is room at My side for thee." And my heart shall rejoice, Lord Jesus: There is room in my heart for Thee! Amen. Scripture: Luke 9:58 Used With Tune: MARGARET

The world is ever near; I see the sights that dazzle, The tempting sounds I hear; My foes are ever near me, Around me and within; But, Jesus, draw Thou nearer, And shield my soul from sin. 3 O let me hear Thee speaking In accents clear and still, Above the storms of passion, The murmurs of self-will! O speak to reassure me, To hasten or control! O speak, and make me listen, Thou Guardian of my soul! 4 O Jesus, Thou has promised To all who follow Thee That where Thou art in glory There shall Thy servant be; And, Jesus, I have promised To serve Thee to the end; O give me grace to follow, My Master and my Friend!
