A lot of great, unfamiliar songs on here. My favorite is No Room At The Inn, recorded by Mahalia Jackson. It has a rocking beat and I liike doing it best on electric guitar because the notes sustain more than on acoustic. I did this on acoustic guitar a couple of weeks ago at the U'n'I coffee house in Springfield, Mass. and the audience really got into it.

Chorus:
    There was no room, no room at the inn
    There was no room, no room at the inn
    When the time had surely come
    For the Savior to be born
    There was no room, no room at the inn

According to the word, there was a virgin birth
And the father of Jesus was wanderin' around that night
He was looking for a placde for the Savior to be born
But there was no room, no room at the inn

I know that mother was worried and she began to moan
She prayed to be delivered of her only son
She was very sad I know, for she had no place to go
For there was no room, no room at the inn

The porter and the bellboy, the waitress and the cook
Will be witnesses up in heaven to all the things it took
When they were turned away, 'cause they had no place to stay
For there was no room, no room at the inn

This song bursts with energy and a solid beat, and I love how down to earth the observations are. Bethlehem bellboys? What a hoot!
