Lyrics
Verse 1
Come, they told me, pa rum pum pum pum
A newborn King to see, pa rum pum pum pum
Our finest gifts we bring, pa rum pum pum pum
To lay before our 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
Verse 2
Little baby, pa rum pum pum rum
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 the 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
Chorus
Shall I play for You, shall I play for you
Mary looked at me and nodded, and the ox and lamb kept time
Oh, I played my drum for Him, oh I played my best for Christ
I played my best for Christ
Tag
Then, He smiled at me
