Author: Jeannette Threlfall Hymnal: The Hymnal for Boys and Girls #44 (1936) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D First Line: Hosanna! loud hosanna! Lyrics: 1 Hosanna! loud hosanna!
The little children sang;
Thro' pillared court and temple
The glorious anthem rang;
To Jesus, who had blessed them,
Close folded to His breast,
The children sang their praises,
The simplest and the best.
2 From Olivet they followed,
'Midst an exultant crowd,
Waving the victor palm-branch,
And chanting clear and loud;
Bright angels joined the chorus
Beyond the cloudless sky-
"Hosanna in the highest'
Glory to God on high!"
3 "Hosanna in the highest!"
That ancient song we sing;
For Christ is our Redeemer,
The Lord of heaven our King.
O may we ever praise Him
With heart, and life, and voice,
And in his radiant presence
Eternally rejoice.
Amen. Topics: Palm Sunday Tune Title: ELLACOMBE
