16614. Make Room For Jesus

1 Make room, O soul, to­day for Je­sus;
Why close the door against this friend?
He on­ly could or would re­deem you;
He on­ly can your life de­fend.

Refrain:
Make room for Je­sus;
Make room for Je­sus;
He is a migh­ty Sav­ior
Who can save you from all sin;
Make room for Je­sus;
Make room for Je­sus;
Throw op­en wide the door to­day,
And let Him in.

2 Make room, O soul, today for Je­sus;
You need the virtue of His blood;
You need the migh­ty Ho­ly Spir­it;
You need the ho­ly life of God. [Refrain]

3 Make room, O soul, to­day for Je­sus,
You need Him as the Truth and Way;
You need Him at the time of judg­ment,
You need Him ev­ery pass­ing day. [Refrain]
