Author: J. King, 1798-1858 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #594 (1917) Lyrics: 1 When, His salvation bringing,
To Zion Jesus came,
The children all stood singing
Hosanna to His name;
Nor did their zeal offend Him,
But, as He rode along,
He let them still attend Him,
And smiled to hear their song.
2 And since the Lord retaineth
His love to children still,
Though now as King He reigneth
On Zion's heavenly hill,
We'll flock around His standard,
We'll bow before His throne,
And cry aloud, "Hosanna
To David's royal Son."
3 For should we fail proclaiming
Our great Redeemer's praise,
The stones, our silence shaming,
Would their hosannas raise.
But shall we only render
The tribute of our words?
No; while our hearts are tender,
They too shall be the Lord's. Topics: Christ Redeemer; For the Young; Praise Children's; Redeemer, the Languages: English Tune Title: TOURS
