There is room in my heart for Thee!

These two verses are from one of my favorite hymns, "Thou Didst Leave Thy Throne", and I just thought I'd share them...

Heavens arches rang
When the angels sang
Proclaiming Thy royal degree;
But of 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!

When the heav'ns 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"
My heart shall rejoice, Lord Jesus,
When Thou comest and callest for me!

- Emily E.S. Elliott

  1. Oh thank you Madi! I don't think I've ever heard that hymn before. I wish I knew the tune so I could sing it! ;) Maybe some day if we ever talk on the phone then you could sing it for me. :) Anyway, that is so beautiful! Thanks again.
    Love you bunches! Happy 2012!
