Lyrics to Harry, the Gentle Donkey
1. My name is Harry the donkey. I’m a young colt that’s gentle. It’s true.
I stand with my mother next to the door waiting for something to do
Waiting for something to do. Waiting for something to do
I stand with my mother next to the door
Waiting for something to do
2. I was munching my hay on a Sunday when two men came up to our door.
My master asked, “What do you want?” “We need Harry for our Lord.”
“We need Harry for our Lord.” “We need Harry for our Lord.”
“We’re doing as Jesus our Master has asked.”
“We need Harry for our Lord.”
3. Two men then walked over. They looked at my mom then at me.
They untied us both and led us away. Now there were new things to see
Now there were new things to see. Now there were new things to see
Our eyes grew wide and our ears stood tall.
Now there were new things to see.
4. My mother and I walked a distance then saw Jesus who looked right at me
The men placed cloaks upon our backs. Jesus sat on me happily.
Jesus sat on me happily. Jesus sat on me happily.
I felt like I was holding a king. Jesus sat on me happily.
5. Then something wonderful happened. I heard people shout and sing.
They waved palm branches high in the air. They called Jesus their blessed king.
They called Jesus their blessed king. They called Jesus their blessed king.
Hosanna to the Son of David, Jesus their blessed king.
6. Some men in the crowd were angry wanting people to stop and not shout.
But Jesus said with authority, “If they’re quiet the stones will cry out.”
“If they’re quiet the stones will cry out.” “If they’re quiet the stones will cry out.”
Jesus proclaimed like a king in command, “If they’re quiet the stones will cry out.”
7. Soon the celebration was over. I was back home with my family.
I’ll remember this day as long as I live; the day I carried the King.
The day I carried the King. The day I carried the King.
Jesus rode upon my back. I know He is the King of kings.
