Hosanna, Loud Hosanna
1 "Hosanna, loud hosanna," The little children sang; Thro' pillared court and temple The lovely anthem rang; To Jesus, who had blessed them Close folded to His breast, The children sang their praises, The simplest and the best. 2 From Olivet they followed 'Mid an exultant crowd, The victor palm branch waving And chanting clear and loud; The Lord of earth and heaven Rode on in lowly state, Nor scorned that little children Should on His bidding wait. 3 "Hosanna in the highest!" That ancient song we sing, For Christ is our Redeemer, The Lord of heav'n, our King; O may we ever praise Him With heart and life and voice, And in His blissful presence Eternally rejoice!
