Room for the Penitent

Room for the pe­ni­tent

bur­dened with sin

Room at the op­en door—let him come in;

Weary and tem­pest tossed

where can he flee?

Jesus

Thou Lamb of God

on­ly to Thee.

Room for the pe­ni­tent; where can he flee?

Jesus

Thou Lamb of God

on­ly to Thee.

Room where the liv­ing stream flows at His feet

Room at the throne of grace—God’s mer­cy seat;

There may the brok­en heart lose all its grief

There may the con­trite soul find sweet re­lief.

Room at the bless­èd feast God has pre­pared

Room where the bread of life mill­ions have shared;

Room where the smiles of love ten­der­ly fall;

Room in Thy arms

O Christ

room

room for all.
