All this month leading up to Christmas, I want to share some meaningful Christmas song lyrics. You can read the previous blog posts for the other Christmas Lyrics.
Christmas music this year has been such a blessing to me. I have been listening more intently.
Christmas Lyrics — December 19th
Lyric — “I have no gift to bring, thats fit to give our king”
Song (Click the song to hear it) — Little Drummer Boy
This very well may be my favorite Christmas Lyrics of this Christmas season.
Everyone knows the song because of the “Pa rum pum pum pum,’ but fewer people actually know the lyrics.
Notice what the song says:
“Come, they told me, a newborn king to see,
our finest gifts we bring, to lay before our king.
So to honor him, when we come.”
Then it gets to the good part:
“Little baby, I am a poor boy too,
I have no gift to bring, thats fit to give our king.”
That is the Good News of Christmas. The Love of Jesus. We don’t have anything to give Him. We are to receive from Him. God gave Jesus for us.
This Christmas, let us rest in God’s great love. Jesus gave his life so that we can have life.
