No Room, No Room

View/print sheet music:     SATB

    Lyrics:
    No room in the inn to await the coming morn
    No room in the inn for a baby to be born
    Little comfort at his birth for the King of all the earth
    No room; no room.
    No room in the inn for this stranger from afar
    No room in the inn -- no the doors are locked and barred
    Not a chamber, rich or poor, nor a place upon the floor
    No room, no room
    Such has his welcome been

    Chorus:
    Make room, oh my heart, turn thou not thy Lord away
    Make room, oh my heart, bid him welcome -- bid him stay
    Prepare him all thy best
    Keep him evermore thy guest
    No room, Lord, for thee?
    No room? Stay with me!
    The finest my soul can afford
    Shall be all thine own, dearest Lord

    No room 'mid the toils or the pleasures of our day
    No room in our lives for a baby on the hay
    Not a moment to abide, kneeling at the manger-side
    No room, no room
    No room 'mid the cares of the heedless sons of men
    No room in our world for the Child of Bethlehem
    Not an hour in our haste left unfilled to give him place
    No room, no room
    Such has his welcome been

    (Repeat chorus)
