Lyrics
Come, they told me, pa (G)rum pum pum (D)pum,
a newborn King to see, pa (G)rum pum pum (D)pum.
(A)Our finest gifts we bring, pa rum pum pum pum,
to lay before the King, pa (D7)rum pum pum (G)pum,
rum pum pum (D)pum, rum pum pum (A)pum.
(D)So to honor Him, pa (G)rum pum pum (D)pum,
(Em)when we (D)come.
Little Baby, pa (G)rum pum pum (D)pum,
I am a poor boy too,
pa (G)rum pum pum (D)pum.
(A)I have no gift to bring,
pa rum pum pum pum,
that's fit to give the King,
pa (D7)rum pum pum (G)pum, rum pum pum (D)pum,
rum pum pum (A)pum.
(D)Shall I play for You, pa (G)rum pum pum (D)pum,
(Em)on my (D)come.
drum?
Shall I play for you?
Shall I play for You?
Mary (Bm)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.
(D)Then He smiled at me.
