Is There Room?
==============

[Verse 1]
A lonely path by desert light,
a weary maid rode through the night;
Her faithful husband by her side
in need of lodging for his bride.
Is there room for Him inside,
a welcome chamber to abide?
Just a stable cold and bare.
Is there room for Him somewhere?

[Interlude 1]

[Verse 2]
The virgin carried God's own Son;
the pains of birth had just begun.
Is there room?  But there was none
to lay the child, the Holy One.
Is there room for Him inside,
a welcome chamber to abide?
Just a stable cold and bare.
Is there room for Him somewhere?

[Interlude 2]

[Verse 3]
The child asleep in manger lay.
The light of hope would break the day.
A work of grace had just begun,
the peace of God for ev'ryone.
Is there room for Him inside,
a welcome chamber to abide?
Just a heart so cold and bare;
Is there room for Him (Room for HIm) somewhere?

[Coda]
Is there room in your heart for Jesus?
