16295. And Yet There Is Room

1 Come to the feast which the King hath spread,
Wine, milk and ho­ney and liv­ing bread;
Come as you are and be not afraid,
Jesus in­vites to­day.

Refrain:
And yet there is room,
O hear it, yet there is room;
Yet there is room,
Believe it, plen­ty of room;
Tho’ mill­ions are feast­ing now,
The King says come,
And yet there is room.

2 Out from the high­ways and hedg­es come,
Back to the love of the Father’s home;
Many are feast­ing, and still there’s room,
Jesus in­vites to­day. [Refrain]

3 Idle ex­cus­es no long­er make;
All that is sin­ful and vain for­sake;
Now of the hea­ven­ly feast par­take,
Jesus in­vites to­day. [Refrain]

4 Weary and griev­ing o’er wast­ed years,
Coming re­pent­ing with bit­ter tears;
Homesick and heart­sick this mes­sage cheers;
Jesus in­vites to­day. [Refrain]
