| Text: | Hosanna, Loud Hosanna |
| Author: | Jennette Threlfall |
| Tune: | ELLACOMBE |
1 Hosanna, loud hosanna,
the little children sang;
through pillared court and temple
the lovely 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
'mid an exultant crowd,
the victor palm branch waving,
and chanting clear and loud;
the Lord of earth and heaven
rode on in lowly state,
nor scorned that little children
should on his bidding wait.
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 blissful presence
eternally rejoice!
