Lyrics

On humble bast now rides the king this day among the palms: the people shout the children sing their praise to him in psalms. Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. He comes in Peace and majesty, His purpose to proclaim In triumph now He passes by, Hosanna to His name. He knows those praises soon will fade, and there will be shouts of "Crucify!" from lips of evil men. Will I betray Him? Or crown Him King? He reigns today to free mankind from every sin and wrong. Lift high your palms in praise to Him, and sing the triumph song.
