Thou didst leave thy throne

Elliott, 1836 - 97 Appears in 433 hymnals Topics: The Church Year Christmas; The Church Worship - The Lord's Day; The Church Worship - The Beginning of Service; The Church Worship - The Close of Service; The Church Worship - Morning; The Life In Christ Adoration and Praise Lyrics: 1 Thou didst leave thy throne And thy kingly crown When thou camest to earth for me, But in Bethlehem's home Was there found no room For thy holy nativity: 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 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. 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, When thou comest and callest for me. Used With Tune: MARGARET

Yet there are hands stretched out to draw me near. 3 The while I fain would tread the heavenly way, Evil is ever with me day by day; Yet on mine ears the gracious tidings fall, Repent, believe; thou shalt be loosed from all! 4 It is the voice of Jesus that I hear, His are the hands stretched out to draw me near, And His the blood that can for all atone, And set me faultless there before the throne. 5 'Twas He who found me on the deathly wild, And made me heir of heaven, the Father's child, And day by day, whereby my soul may live, Gives me His grace of pardon, and will give. 6 O great Absolver, grant my soul may wear The lowliest garb of penitence and prayer, That in the Father's courts my glorious dress May be the garment of Thy righteousness! 7 Yea, Thou wilt answer for me, righteous Lord; Thine all the merits, mine the great reward; Thine the sharp thorns, and mine the golden crown; Mine the life won, and Thine the life laid down. 8 Nought can I bring Thee, Lord, for all I owe; Yet let my full heart what it can bestow: Like Mary's gift, let my devotion prove, Forgiven greatly, how I greatly love.

Help, O God, my weak endeavor; This dull soul to rapture raise; Thou must light the flame, or never Can my love be warmed to praise. 2 Praise, my soul, the God that sought thee, Wretched wanderer, far astray; Found thee lost, and kindly brought thee From the paths of death away. Praise, with love’s devoutest feeling, Him who saw thy guilt-born fear, And, the light of hope revealing, Bade the blood-stained Cross appear. A-men. 3 Lord, this bosom’s ardent feeling Vainly would my lips express; Low before thy footstool kneeling, Deign thy suppliant’s prayer to bless; Let thy grace, my soul’s chief treasure, Love’s pure flame within me raise; And, since words can never measure, Let my life show forth thy praise. Amen. Used With Tune: RIPLEY

Thankful tribute gladly bringing, let us come before him now, and, with psalms his praises singing, joyful in his presence bow. 2 For how great a God, and glorious, is the LORD of whom we sing; over idol gods victorious, great is he, our God and King. In his hand are earth's deep places, also his are all the hills; his the sea whose bounds he traces, his the land his bounty fills. 3 To the LORD, such might revealing, let us come with reverence meet, and, before our Maker kneeling, let us worship at his feet. He is our own God who leads us, we the people of his care; with a shepherd's hand he feeds us as his flock in pastures fair. 4 While he offers peace and pardon let us hear his voice today, lest, if we our hearts should harden, we should perish in the way-- lest to us, so unbelieving, he in judgment should declare: "You, so long my Spirit grieving, never in my rest will share."
