66*. Come! Hear the Gospel Sound

6,4,6,4,6,6,6,4.
by G.W. Frazer
1
Come! hear the gospel sound — 
 
"Yet there is room!"
 
It tells to all around — 
 
"Yet there is room!"
 
Though guilty, now draw near,
 
Though vile, you need not fear,
 
With joy you now may hear — 
 
"Yet there is room!"
“And the servant said, Lord, it is done as thou hast commanded, and yet there is room.” (Luke 14:22)
2
God’s love in Christ we see — 
 
"Yet there is room!"
 
Greater it could not be — 
 
"Yet there is room!"
 
His only Son He gave,
 
He’s righteous now to save
 
All who on Him believe:
 
"Yet there is room!"
“In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.” (1 John 4:9)
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16)
3
"All things are ready: come!"
 
"Yet there is room!"
 
Christ everything hath done:
 
"Yet there is room!"
 
The work is now complete;
 
Before the mercy-seat
 
A Savior you will meet:
 
"Yet there is room!"
“And sent his servant at supper time to say to them that were bidden, Come; for all things are now ready.” (Luke 14:17)
“I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.” (John 17:4)
4
God’s house is filling fast,
 
"Yet there is room!"
 
Some guest will be the last,
 
"Yet there is room!"
 
Yes! soon salvation’s day
 
To you will pass away,
 
Then grace no more will say — 
 
"Yet there is room!"
“(For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succored thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)” (2 Corinthians 6:2)
