Thou didst leave Thy throne
and Thy kingly crown
When Thou camest to earth for me
But in Bethlehem's home
there was found no room
For Thy holy nativity
O come to my heart, Lord Jesus
There is room in my heart for Thee

Heaven's arches rang
When the angels sang
Proclaiming Thy royal degree
But in lowly birth
Thou didst come to earth
And in great humility
O come to my heart Lord Jesus
There is room in my heart for Thee

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

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

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."
Then my heart shall rejoice Lord Jesus
When Thou comest and callest for me.
