Thou Didst Leave Thy Throne (Weekly Hymn Project - Christmas Hymns)

Next on the Christmas Hymns list is what I would consider a less familiar hymn, but a good one, as it not only touches on Christ's birth, but leads to the cross, which really Christ's birth isn't the same without His death and resurrection (perhaps one of the reasons why I like the Ball Brothers song "It's About the Cross" so much :-). As a little side note, I played and sang this one from my usual hymnal, but when I was looking up the lyrics on TimelessTruths, they have a 5th verse (guess it would actually be the third in position) which I kind of wish I'd known as it would have been a good one to add. I'll share the link to the lyrics from that site for anyone who would like to see what I'm talking about. https://library.timelesstruths.org/mu... Lyrics: 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. [Refrain verses 1-3] O come to my heart, Lord Jesus, There is room in my heart for Thee. Heaven’s arches rang when the angels sang, Proclaiming Thy royal degree; But in lowly birth Thou didst come to earth, And in great humility. 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. When the heav’ns 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.
