Song based on the Bible verse:
Philippians 2:6-7
6 who, being in the form of God, did not consider it [a]robbery to be equal with God, 7 but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men.

1
Thou didst leave Thy throne and Thy kingly crown
When Thou camest to earth for me
But in Bethlehem’s home was there found no room
For Thy holy nativity
O come to my heart Lord Jesus
There is room in my heart for Thee
2
Heaven’s arches rang when the angels sang
Proclaiming Thy royal degree
But of lowly birth didst Thou come to earth
And in great humility
O come to my heart Lord Jesus
There is room in my heart for Thee
3
The foxes found rest and the birds their nest
In the shade of the forest tree
But Thy couch was the sod O Thou Son of God
In the deserts of Galilee
O come to my heart Lord Jesus
There is room in my heart for Thee
4
Thou camest O Lord with the living Word
That should set Thy people free
But with mocking scorn and with crown of thorn
They bore Thee to Calvary
O come to my heart Lord Jesus
There is room in my heart for Thee
5
When the heavens shall ring and the angels sing
At Thy coming to victory
Let Thy voice call me home saying Yet there is room
There is room at My side for thee
My heart shall rejoice Lord Jesus
When Thou comest and callest for me
