Christmas in the hospital
That's not how tradition goes, yet here we are
You need surgery, but they're no openings
Until New Year's Eve, so here we are
And I can't help but think about Christ
And the way he stepped into this life
To a world full of sin
With no room at the inn
Still he entered the depths of our strife
And the similarities they abound
As you lay in that hospital gown
For in weakness He came
For the sick and the lame
That the true light of God might be found
There's no ornaments, or fancy tree
Just humble circumstance this Christmas Eve
And you might think it's of no consequence
But it means everything, eternally
We all need
An open heart
To receive
This gift of love
So would everyone
Prepare Him room
For "God with us"
To come and rule
