Lyrics
Weary travelers on the road to Bethlehem
In a hurry for the time was close at hand
Trying desperately to find a place to stay
Sighing helplessly each time they turned away
There was no room at the inn, for the mother great with child
So in a manger she placed the baby meek and mild
He was the Savior of all even from the very start
There was no room at the inn
But there’s room in my heart
Joseph pleaded, can’t you see my wife is due
We’ve been everywhere and there’s not a vacant room
We’ll take anything it doesn’t have to be the best
All we’re asking for is a simple place to rest
There was no room at the inn, for the mother great with child
So in a manger she placed the baby meek and mild
He was the Savior of all even from the very start
There was no room at the inn
But there’s room in my heart
Every heart’s a home and there’s only so much room
When the Savior comes to call is it already consumed?
Let us empty everything and prepare a place for Him to stay
We welcome you, Lord Jesus, come
Be born inside our hearts today
There was no room at the inn, for the mother great with child
So in a manger she placed the baby meek and mild
He was the Savior of all even from the very start
There was no room at the inn
But there’s room in my heart
Away in a manger no crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head
The stars in the sky look down where He lay
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay
He was the Savior of all even from the very start
