75b. When Jesus to the temple came

1 When Jesus to the temple came,
The voice of praise was heard,
The little children owned his claim,
And in his train appeared,
Singing glory, glory, glory be to God on high.

2 Hosannas made the temple ring,
For many tongues agreed;
Hosanna to the heavenly King,
To David's promised seed.
Singing glory, glory, glory be to God on high.

3 O let those scenes be now renewed,
Where children lisp thy praise!
Thou art as gracious and as good
As in the former days
Singing glory, glory, glory be to God on high.

4 Dwell by thy Gospel in our hearts,
And this will loose our tongues;
The love that heavenly truth imparts,
Will animate our songs,
Singing glory, glory, glory be to God on high.
