FOR PALM SUNDAY .

H OSANNA , Hosanna, Hosanna!
Thine O J ESU , are honor, glory, power.
Amen, Amen.
Thy King, O Salem, comes to thee,
Clothed with humility;
Meek the foal He draweth nigh on:
Sing for joy, O Daughter of Zion,
Alleluia, Alleluia.

Hosanna, Hosanna, Hosanna!
Son of David, ascend Thy royal throne.
Amen, Amen.
Afar to earth's remotest end
Let Thy loving realm extend, —
Realm no powers of hell can sever:
Thou shalt reign for ever and ever!
Alleluia, Alleluia.

Hosanna, Hosanna, Hosanna!
Our Redeemer and King art Thou alone.
Amen, Amen.
Strow fresh green branches o'er the clay,
Spread your garments in His way,
Shout, all ye that go before Him,
All ye following after, adore Him:
Alleluia, Alleluia.

Hosanna, Hosanna, Hosanna!
Thou, O J ESU , art King of saints in light.
Amen, Amen.
Forth from the Holy City's gate
Pours a train in solemn state;
Victor palms, triumphant voices,
Join yon host that coming rejoices:
Alleluia, Alleluia.

Hosanna, Hosanna, Hosanna!
This is J ESUS of Nazareth, our King.
Amen, Amen.
Street after street glad tumult fills,
All the city moves and thrills;
Hark! the happy children crying, —
Loud and clear their fellows replying:
Alleluia, Alleluia.

Hosanna, Hosanna, Hosanna!
Ope, ye doors, for the King of Glory comes.
Amen, Amen.
He heals the sick, the lame, the blind,
Peace He gives the troubled mind,
Nay, the very dead He raises:
Heaven and earth re-echo His praises!
Alleluia, Alleluia.
