Come, Faithful People, Come Away,
Your Homage To Your Monarch Pay;
It Is The Feast Of Palms Today;
Hosanna In The Highest!
When Christ, The Lord Of All, Drew Nigh
On Sunday Morn To Bethany,
He Called Two Loved Ones Standing By:
Hosanna In The Highest!
“To Yonder Village Go,” Said He,
“An Ass And Foal Tied Shall Ye See,
Loose Them And Bring Them Unto Me;”
Hosanna In The Highest!
“If Any Man Dispute Your Word,
Say, ‘They Are Needed By The Lord,’
And He Permission Will Accord”:
Hosanna In The Highest!
The Two Upon Their Errand Sped,
And Found The Ass As He Had Said,
And On The Colt Their Clothes They Spread:
Hosanna In The Highest!
They Set Him Upon His Throne So Rude;
Before Him Went The Multitude,
And In Their Way Their Garments Strewed:
Hosanna In The Highest!
Go, Saviour, Thus To Triumph Borne,
Thy Crown Shall Be The Wreath Of Thorn,
Thy Royal Garb The Robe Of Scorn:
Hosanna In The Highest!
They Thronged Before, Behind, Around,
They Cast Palm Branches On The Ground,
And Still Rose Up The Joyful Sound:
Hosanna In The Highest!
“Blessed Is Israel’s King,” They Cry;
“Blessed Is He That Cometh Nigh
In Name Of God The Lord Most High”:
Hosanna In The Highest!
Thus, Saviour, To Thy Passion Go,
Arrayed In Royalty Of Woe,
Assumed For Sinners Here Below:
Hosanna In The Highest!
