The Little Drummer Boy

Come, they told me, a new born King to see.
Our finest gifts we bring to lay before the king,
So to honor him when we come.

Baby Jesus, I am a poor boy too.
I have nothing to bring, nothing to give our King.
Shall I play for You on my drum?

Mary nodded; the ox and lamb kept time.
I played my drum for Him.
I played my best for Him.
Then He smiled at me, me and my drum.
