*The Little Drummer Boy*
~Lyrics by Harry Simeone~
Come they told me pa rum pum pum pum,
Our new born King to see, pa rum pum pum pum,
Our finest gifts we bring pa rum pum pum pum
To lay before the King pa rum pum pum pum,
rum pum pum pum, rum pum pum pum

So to honor Him pa rum pum pum pum,
When we come.
Baby Jesus pa rum pum pum pum,
I am a poor boy too, pa rum pum pum pum
I have no gift to bring pa rum pum pum pum,
That's fit to give our King pa rum pum pum pum,
rum pum pum pum, rum pum pum pum
Shall I play for you? pa rum pum pum pum
On my drum.

Some Children See Him
By Alfred Burt
Some children see Him lily white
the infant Jesus born this night
Some children see Him lily white
with tresses soft and fair
Some children see Him bronzed and brown
the Lord of heav'n to earth come down
Some children see Him bronzed and brown
with dark and heavy hair
(with dark and heavy hair!)
Some children see Him almond-eyed
This Saviour whom we kneel beside
Some children see Him almond-eyed
With skin of yellow hue!
Some children see Him dark as they
Sweet Mary's Son to whom we pray
Some children see Him dark as they
And, ah! they love Him so!
The children in each different place
Will see the Baby Jesus' face
Like theirs but bright with heav'nly grace
And filled with holy light!
O lay aside each earthly thing
and with thy heart as offering
Come worship now the infant King
'tis love that's born tonight!
'tis love that's born tonight!

Mary nodded pa rum pum pum pum,
The ox and lamb kept time pa rum pum pum pum.
I played my drum for Him pa rum pum pum pum,
I played my best for Him pa rum pum pum pum,
rum pum pum pum, rum pum pum pum.

Then He smiled at me pa rum pum pum pum
Me and my drum.
