Author: Eric Reid (1936-1970) Hymnal: New Church Praise #100 (1975) Lyrics: 1 Trotting, trotting through Jerusalem,
Jesus, sitting on a donkey's back,
children waving branches, singing
'Happy is he that comes in the name of the Lord!'
2 Many people in Jerusalem
thought he should have come on a mighty horse
leading all the Jews to battle--
'Happy is he that comes in the name of the Lord!'
3 Many people in Jerusalem
were amazed to see such a quiet man
trotting, trotting on a donkey--
'Happy is he that comes in the name of the Lord!'
4 Trotting, trotting through Jerusalem,
Jesus, sitting on a donkey's back:
let us join the children singing
'Happy is he that comes in the name of the Lord!' Topics: Palm Sunday Languages: English Tune Title: TROTTING
