Hymn 1194: I have heard of a home far away above the skies

I have heard of a home far away above the skies, Where the good and true may happy be; I have looked through the stars, and I've watched through lonely hours, And I've wondered if there's room there for me ? Yes, there's room for you and for me, And there's room for the whole world beside ;

The wonderful love of the Lord reaches all ; It gently calls us now to His side. Room for you and me, And there's room for all ; Listen I listen ! Hear His earnest call : " Whosoever will may come, . . . Come, ye that are weary, And are heavy laden " : [for all. Listen, He's calling thee, there's room

2. But they say that the righteous shall scarcely enter there; How, then, shall a sinner like me ? I am far, far away from the gentle me ? Shepherd's care ; Oh, I wonder if He'll make room for Yes, there's room, the call is for thee, 'Tis a grand invitation, full and free; There's room for us all, if we list to His Yes, He's willing to make room there for thee.
