In the heart of Bethlehem, long ago, a humble boy with a drum stepped into the nativity scene. His gift was a simple, heartfelt rhythm. As he played, the baby Jesus stirred, eyes wide with wonder. The animals—calf, donkey, white doves, and gentle lambs— all gathered around. The Drummer Boy’s music became a lullaby, a celebration of love and innocence.
 
On the Reverse Side of the ornament is the manger—a sacred space where heaven touched earth. Baby Jesus rests there, swaddled in divine light. The young donkey and calf, guardians of this holy moment, watch over Him. Their eyes hold ancient wisdom, as if they know the weight of the world rests on those tiny shoulders. Stars twinkle above, and the night sky whispers secrets to the newborn King.
 
 
Come they told me
Pa rum pum pum pum
A 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,
So to honor him
Pa rum pum pum pum
When we come
Pum pum pum pum
 
Little baby
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,
 
Shall I play for you
Pa rum pum pum pum
 
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,
 
Then he smiled at me
Pa rum pum pum pum
Me and my drum
Come they told me
Pa rum pum pum pum
A new born king to see
Pa rum pum pum pum
Me and my drum
Rum pum pum pum
