On the Twelfth Day of Christmas,
My true Love (God the Father) gave to Me (His Child)
Twelve Drummers Drumming
Eleven Pipers Piping
Ten Lords a Leaping
Nine Ladies Dancing
Eight Maids a Milking
Seven Swans A Swimming
Six Geese a Laying
Five Golden Rings
Four Calling Birds
Three French Hens
Two Turtledoves
And A partridge in a pear tree.The Twelve Drummers Represent the Twelve points of the Apostles Creed.
I believe in God the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ His only begotten son, Our Lord. Born of the Virgin Mary, Crucified, died and was buried, Rose again on the third day, ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of the God Father, from whence he shall come to judge both the quick and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and giver of life, who with the Father and Son together are worshipped and glorfied, who spake by the prophets. I believe in one holy and apostolic church, one baptism for the remission of sins, and life of the world to come.
