Author: Victor O. Petersen Hymnal: Together in Song #336 (1999) Meter: 6.6.7.7.7.7 Scripture: Psalm 118:14-27 Lyrics: 1 O bride of Christ, rejoice;
exultant raise your voice
to greet the day of glory
foretold in sacred story:
Refrain
Hosanna, we adore you!
Our King, we bow before you.
2 Let shouts of gladness rise
triumphant to the skies;
here comes the King most glorious,
and he will reign victorious [Refrain]
3 He wears no kingly crown,
yet as a king is known;
though not adorned in splendour,
he still makes death surrender: [Refrain]
4 The weak and timid find
him gentle, good, and kind;
to them he gives a treasure
of bliss beyond all measure: [Refrain]
5 Your heart now open wide,
let Christ with you abide;
he graciously will hear you,
and be for ever near you: [Refrain]
6 Then go your Lord to meet,
spread palm-leaves at his feet;
your garments lay before him
and honour and adore him: [Refrain]
7 And little children too
will praise the Lord with you,
and every land and nation
respond with exaltation: [Refrain]
