Dearest God, please never let me crowd my life to the brim,  
Dearest God, please never let me crowd my life to the brim,  
so like the keeper of Bethlehem's inn, I find I have no room for Him.
so like the keeper of Bethlehem's inn, I find I have no room for Him.
Line 28: Line 27:
Rather let my heart's door be ever open, ready to welcome the newborn King;
Rather let my heart's door be ever open, ready to welcome the newborn King;
Let me offer the best I have, to Him who gives me everything.
Let me offer the best I have, to Him who gives me everything.

Dearest God, please never let me crowd my life to the brim,
so like the keeper of Bethlehem's inn, I find I have no room for Him.

Rather let my heart's door be ever open, ready to welcome the newborn King;
Let me offer the best I have, to Him who gives me everything.
