10455. No Room In Heaven

1 How sad it would be, if when thou didst call,
All hopeless and unforgiven,
The angel that stands at the beautiful gate,
Should answer, No room in Heaven.

Refrain:
Sad, sad, sad would it be!
No room in Heaven for thee!
No room, no room,
No room in Heaven for thee!
No room, no room,
No room in Heaven for thee!

2 How sad it would be, the harvest all past,
The bright summer days all over;
To know that the reapers had gathered the grain,
And left thee alone forever. [Refrain]

3 Oh, haste thee, and fly, while mercy is near,
Remember the love that He gave you;
The love that hath sought thee is seeking thee still,
And Jesus now waits to save you. [Refrain]
