In the Christmas song "Joy To The World" I thought the words were: Let every heart prepare Him a room.
It made sense to me because I knew the story where there was no room at the Inn for Joseph and Mary.
A childhood belief about hymns

- I thought that the star that Mary and Joseph followed was called Yonder, as in 'following Yonder star."— Kairow
- I believed that Jesus Christ was the son of the Christ family, i.e., Mary and Joseph Christ.— David Araújo
