Yet There Is Room

Horatius Bonar (1879) • English

Primary Scripture: Matthew 25:10

Verse 1

"Yet there is room!" The Lamb's bright hall of song, With its fair glory, beckons thee along; Room, room, still room! Oh, enter, enter now!

Verse 2

Day is declining, and the sun is low; The shadows lengthen, light makes haste to go: Room, room, still room! Oh, enter, enter now!

Verse 3

The bridal hall is filling for the feast; Pass in, pass in, and be the Bridegroom's guest; Room, room, still room! Oh, enter, enter now!

Verse 4

It fills, it fills, that hall of jubilee! Make haste, make haste; 'tis not too full for thee; Room, room, still room! Oh, enter, enter now!

Verse 5

Yet there is room! Still open stands the gate, The gate of love; it is not yet too late: Room, room, still room! Oh, enter, enter now!

Verse 6

Pass in, pass in, that banquet is for thee; That cup of everlasting joy is free; Room, room, still room! Oh, enter, enter now!

Verse 7

All heaven is there, all joy! Go in, go in; The angels beckon thee the prize to win; Room, room, still room! Oh, enter, enter now!

Verse 8

Ere night that gate may close, and seal thy doom, Then the last, low, long cry: "No room, no room!" No room, no room:--Oh, woeful cry, "No room."
