All Glory, Laud and Honor: A Deep Meditation on the Triumphant King (Matthew 21:9) | Instrumental

Share!

Join the “multitudes” in a timeless chorus of praise with this majestic instrumental of “All Glory, Laud and Honor.” This arrangement captures the celebratory spirit of the Triumphal Entry, inviting you to present your own “prayer and praise” before the King of Israel.

The Scriptural Foundation
This hymn is a vibrant retelling of the scene in Matthew 21:9:
“Then the multitudes who went before and those who followed cried out, saying: ‘Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!’”
As you listen, imagine the palm branches and the “sweet hosannas” of children. This music serves as a bridge, allowing us to join the “company of angels” and all created things in a reply of total adoration.

The Story Behind the Hymn
The history of this hymn is as grand as its melody. It was originally written in Latin around 820 AD by Theodulph of Orleans while he was imprisoned in a monastery. Legend has it that as King Louis the Pious passed by the prison during a Palm Sunday procession, he heard Theodulph singing these words from his cell window. The King was so moved that he ordered Theodulph’s release.
In the mid-1800s, John Mason Neale translated the text into English, preserving the ancient reverence while making it accessible for generations to come. It remains the definitive anthem for celebrating the “Good and Gracious King.”

Hymn Lyrics (Part I)
Chorus
All glory, laud and honor
To Thee, Redeemer, King,
To whom the lips of children
Made sweet hosannas ring.
1
Thou art the King of Israel,
Thou David’s royal Son,
Who in the Lord’s Name comest,
The King and Blessèd One.
2
The company of angels
Are praising Thee on High,
And mortal men and all things
Created make reply.

Hymn Lyrics (Part II)
3
The people of the Hebrews
With palms before Thee went;
Our prayer and praise and anthems
Before Thee we present.
4
To Thee, before Thy passion,
They sang their hymns of praise;
To Thee, now high exalted,
Our melody we raise.
5
Thou didst accept their praises;
Accept the prayers we bring,
Who in all good delightest,
Thou good and gracious King.
