Author: St Theodulph of Orleans, d. 821; J. M. Neale, 1818-66 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #509 (1986) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Lyrics: 1 All glory, laud and honour
To thee, Redeemer, King,
To whom the lips of children
Made sweet hosannas ring.
2 Thou art the King of Israel,
Thou David’s royal Son,
Who in the Lord’s name comest,
The King and blessèd One.
3 The company of angels
Are praising thee on high,
And mortal men and all things
Created make reply.
4 The people of the Hebrews
With palms before thee went;
Our praise and prayer and anthems
Before thee we present.
5 To thee before thy passion
They sang their hymns of praise;
To thee, now high exalted,
Our melody we raise.
6 Thou didst accept their praises,
Accept the prayers we bring,
Who in all good delightest,
Thou good and gracious King.
7 *Do thou direct our footsteps
Upon our earthly way,
And bring us by thy mercy
To heaven's eternal day.
8 *Within that blessèd City
Thy praises may we sing,
And ever raise hosannas
To our most loving King. Topics: Palm Sunday; Procession Languages: English Tune Title: ST. THEODULPH (VALET WILL ICH DIE GEBEN)
