NEVER   EMPTY



The  inn  too  full  to  give  him  bed  ~  empty,

Manger  where  He  lay  His  tiny  head  ~  empty;

The cozy  home  that   Mary  made ~ 

Carpenter  shop where he  learn'd  His  trade ~

Temple  where  He  often  prayed  ~  all empty.

The  Upper  Room with  table  spread  ~  empty,

Bag of  Thirty  that   bought  His  head  ~  empty;

Gethsemane   where  He  agonized,

The  hall where Pilate  criticized,  And

where  His  Sovereignty was so despised ~ empty.

The  Street   of  Pain  He  walked  upon  ~  empty,

Soldier's  spear,  the  jeering  throng  ~  empty;

The  cruel  Cross  that  knew  His  frame,

The  tomb  still  echoing   His  name,

If  they  could  speak,  would  all  proclaim,

"Today  we're  empty ! "

BUT ~  there's  a  place  where  Love abides,

NEVER  EMPTY ~

A  Crimson  Stream ~  A Healing  Tide,

NEVER  EMPTY ~

His  blood  flows  from  the  Mercy  Seat ~

Where  sinful  man  and  Sweet  Grace meet ~

It's  there  Salvation  is  complete ~

Praise God  ~  NEVER  EMPTY !

Oh ~  Glory  to  His  matchless Name,

NEVER  EMPTY !

Healing  then  and  now  the  same,

NEVER  EMPTY !

Oh ~  That  Fountain's  healing  flow ~

Always  washing  white  as  snow  ~

We  must  thank  JESUS,  each time

we  go ~

IT'S  NEVER  EMPTY  !


Jesus  saith  unto  him,
I  am  the  Way,  the  Truth and  The Life.
No  man  cometh  to  the  Father
but   by  me.
