Lyrics from Favorite Gospel Songs, 1894 (no. 166; p. 158)
1. When Christ was born in Bethlehem, Uncrowned with royal diadem, The child within a manger lay, No room within the inn that day; No room for Christ, the Holy Child, No room for Christ, the meek and mild; Though ages since have come and gone, So many crowd out God's dear Son. 2. No room for Christ has wayward youth, And heedless hearts turn from His truth; By bus'ness, pleasure crowded out, And life is spent in darkness, doubt; If for Him here there is no room, How dread at last will be the doom; Forever banished from Him there, In deep, unspeakable despair.
