I wrote a song a few years back for a musical. My friend Melina Kastle recorded a quick scratch track for me, and I just put strings on it last night. Thought you might like it. It is from Mary's perspective of having no hotel room. I thought a lot about what she must have been feeling and thinking.. and here is the song. Enjoy

Here are the lyrics:
Find your place
By Rick Moyer
What a burden placed on us
To have God's only son
To travel all this way to let your will be done
I think it's too great for me
Now that we are finally here
If we suffer this much opposition
Then perhaps we did not hear
Will he find his place in a world so unkind?
Is everyone so busy that none of them have time?
Will he do what the prophets foretold in the book
Or will they all ignore him without a second look?
Will he find his place?
My Husband let's have courage
To do what God commands
This child will save the Nations and bring healing to the land
For if he's born in the street then God will make a way
Perhaps all men will see him then and celebrate this day
Will he find his place in a world so unkind?
Is everyone so busy that none of them have time?
Will he do what the prophets foretold in the book
Or will they all ignore him without a second look?
Will he find his place?
Find your place oh little one
Find your place God's one and only son
Find your place oh little one
Find your place God's one and only son
