~ PA RUMPA, PUM-PUM... ~
A soft chill filled the air. So silent and so holy It humbled each one there. The lowing cattle whispered So as not to wake the Babe, Sleeping in contentment There, upon the hay... The sheep gathered all around Him, Thus, to keep Him warm. Angels watched in adoration, Keeping Him from harm... The Wise Men brought gifts of wealth And placed them around the child... And as He watched them lovingly, Sweet Jesus, softly smiled. Mary, tired and weary From her night of pain, Held that Baby gently As if not to let Him go again. Joseph proudly looked upon This peaceful, thrilling sight, As shepherds pointed to the star That would lead them there that night. *** Then, a gentle tapping That grew louder all around Till every ear within it's path Could hear its resonating sound... Threadbare and shivering in the night, A drummer boy stood... And there he made an offering Of the only thing he could... He played his heart out in those taps As he, in wonder, looked upon, The Baby Jesus on the hay... God's One and Only Son... And as he finished his last tap There on that tiny, little drum... Baby Jesus smiled at him As He blessed this little one... *** It doesn't matter whom you are Or where your riches lay this day... As long as you tap each beat For that Baby on the hay... ~ ~PA RUMPA, PUM-PUM...ON MY DRUM...~ © December 9, 2009 By Lynn King Midi: 'Little Drummer Boy' Image courtesy 'PhotoBucket' By Just4Jesus |
