Have You Any Room for Jesus?

1 Have you any room for Jesus,  
He who bore your load of sin?  
As He knocks and asks admission,  
Sinner, will you let Him in?  

Refrain:  
Room for Jesus, King of Glory!  
Hasten now, His Word obey.  
Swing the heart’s door widely open;  
Bid Him enter while you may.  

2 Room for pleasure, room for business;  
But for Christ, the Crucified,  
Not a place that He can enter,  
In the heart for which He died? [Refrain]  

3 Room and time now give to Jesus;  
Soon will pass God’s day of grace -  
Soon your heart left cold and silent,  
And your Savior’s pleading cease. [Refrain]  

(optional choral ending)  
Swing the heart's door widely open;  
Bid Him enter while you may, while you may.
