When heaven's arches shall ring and her choir shall sing At Thy coming to victory, Let Thy voice call me home, saying, "Yet there is room, O come to my heart, Lord Jesus, There is room in my heart for Thee! Amen. EMILY ELIZABETH STEELE ELLIOTT 213 O Jesus, Thou Art Standing Lux Mundi 7676 7676 4 4 ARTHUR SEYMOUR SULLIVAN 1. O Jesus, Thou art standing Outside the fast-closed door, ly patience wait ing To pass the threshold o'er: Shame on us, Christian brethren, His name and sign who bear: O shame, thrice shame up on us, To keep Him stand-ing there. A-men. 2 O Jesus, Thou art knocking; And lo! that hand is scarred, And thorns Thy brow encircle, And tears Thy face have marred. O sin that hath no equal, 3 O Jesus, Thou art pleading In accents meek and low, "I died for you, My children And will ye treat Me so?" O Lord, with shame and sorrow We open now the door: Dear Saviour, enter, enter, And leave us nevermore. Amen. WILLIAM WALSHAM HOW aught withhold, Dear Lord,from Thee: In love my soul would bow, My heart ful fil its vow, Some off - 'ring bring Thee now, Something for Thee! A-men. All that I am and have, Thy gifts so free, In joy, in grief, through life, Dear Lord, for Thee! And when Thy face I see, My ransomed soul shall be, Through all eternity, Something for Thee! Amen.
