Come into my heart, O Lord Jesus,
Come into my heart, I pray;
My soul is so troubled and weary,
Come into my heart, today.
Come into my heart, I pray;
My soul is so troubled and weary,
Come into my heart, today.
Into my heart, into my heart,
Come into my heart, Lord Jesus;
Come in today, come in to stay,
Come into my heart, Lord Jesus.
Come into my heart, Lord Jesus;
Come in today, come in to stay,
Come into my heart, Lord Jesus.

Come into my heart, O Lord Jesus,
I need Thee through life's dreary way;
The burden of sin is so heavy,
Come into my heart to stay.
I need Thee through life's dreary way;
The burden of sin is so heavy,
Come into my heart to stay.

Come into my heart, O Lord Jesus,
Now cleanse and illumine my soul;
Fill me with Thy wonderful Spirit,
Come in and take full control.
Now cleanse and illumine my soul;
Fill me with Thy wonderful Spirit,
Come in and take full control.

This song came into my heart today, but I realized that I had forgotten much of the lyrics.
My heart soared as I read the words & heard the music. Thank you for your service and may God be with you for all your days.

I woke up with this song.
Lockdown has kept me away from church.
But God is still in my heart. 🙌
While satan is tempting me with the world😡.
Please stay in my heart Lord Jesus.

Rev 3:20. Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If any man will open the door and let me come in, I will come in and sup with him.
Thank you for the powerful hymn because indeed I received our Lord Jesus in my heart.

Yours is also my testimony. At age 4 VBS I recieved Him into my heart.
When I was 8 in 1954 I needed my appendix out and to this day I remember conversing with Jesus and having a knowing that I would be with Him if that was His will. I remember praying the Now I lay down to sleep prayer and having a peace that passes all understanding as the either took over.
Also want to note that the VBS teacher held the picture of Jesus knocking at the door of our heart and explained that He had to be invited in because if we looked at the door it had no handle on the outside. I know that is not scriptural either about no handle but I agree with the scriptures suggested as the basis for the picture concept.

I only learned the chorus as a child and have been singing that chorus only this way ever since I was confirmed.
You came Into my heart, into my heart,
You came into my heart, Lord Jesus;
You came in that day, You came in to stay,
You came into my heart, Lord Jesus.
I was told to get everything in order for my family for the day the Lord would come for me and I wanted something about this song included. In researching it I found some interesting things.
FIRST: there are verses to it as shown above
SECOND: I found someone has pended this, at some point we should say “Fill my heart with devotion and love for you, Lord Jesus."
THIRD: I found this verse.
Out of my heart, out of my heart,
Shine out of my heart, Lord Jesus;
Shine out today, shine out always;
Shine out of my heart, Lord Jesus.
What inspiring work to sing and say and sing some more!

I have never heard the verse of this song until today and I love it! I am beginning to sing this song again in my 30s in a different way. I really want Jesus to come into my heart, so that He shines out of my heart for people to see!
