Humbly He Came Lyrics

Humbly he came
Nobody knew his name
He was so poorly dressed
Looking for a place to rest
Because his feet was bare
They didn't really care

Humbly he came
Nobody knew his name
The words he said were good
But no one understood
Though some of them received
So very few believed

Humbly he came
Nobody knew his name
Just asked for wine and bread
Somewhere to lay his head
But he asked for so much more
From the rich and from the poor

So humbly he came
His leaving was the same
Like a ship without a crew A stranger passing through
He left the way he came
Nobody cried his name

Humbly he came
And never came again
It happened long ago
Now they would not let him go
Women wear their nicest dress
As for a much awaited guest

Children call him by his name
Invite him to their game
Men keep a glass of wine
To celebrate that time
They will feast and sing and then
They will love and love and love again

Humbly he came
Nobody knew his name
Humbly he came
And never came again
