Lyrics

There’s a place in the king­dom of Je­sus for you,
Sinner friend, en­ter now while you may;
If you fal­ter and wait, it may soon be too late;
Come in faith and find par­don to­day.

Refrain

There’s a place in the king­dom for you,
There’s a place in the king­dom for you;
In its safe­ty find rest, and for­ev­er be blest;
There’s a place in the king­dom for you.

Will you lin­ger out­side till the door must be closed,
Tho’ the Sav­ior doth ten­der­ly plead?
He once died on the cross to re­deem you from loss;
Listen now and His call glad­ly heed.

Refrain

Let the Lord from your soul break the fet­ters of sin,
And come into the king­dom of love;
Then when life ends be­low, thro’ eter­ni­ty know
All the rap­ture of saved ones above.
