1 Raise your hosannas to Jesus,
Reigning in glory above;
Raise your hosannas to Jesus
King of the world of love;
Jesus, who banished the shadows;
Jesus, who took our shame—
Praise Him, O praise Him,
All hail His name.

Refrain:
Raise your voices, praising the Lord of all,
With bright angels, low before Jesus fall.
Far and wide His message of love proclaim,
Praise Him, O praise Him, all hail His name.

2 Happy are we who have Jesus
Walking beside us each day;
Helping us carry our burdens,
Driving our griefs away;
Stirring our love to its fullness;
Fanning the spark to flame!
Praise Him, O praise Him,
All hail His name. [Refrain]

3 “Jesus,” the sweetest of music
Greeting a poor sinner’s ear!
Dearly we love to pronounce it,
Dearly that name to hear,
Since we are happy in Jesus
Let us our joy proclaim!
Praise Him, O praise Him,
All hail His name. [Refrain]
