1
Hosanna loud hosanna the little children sang
Through 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 among the joyful crowd
The victory palm branch waving with praises 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 Heaven our king
O may we ever praise Him with heart and life and voice
And in His blissful presence eternally rejoice

From Olivet they followed mid an exultant crowd
The victor palm branch waving and chanting clear and loud
Bright angels joined the chorus beyond the cloudless sky
“Hosanna in the highest glory to God on high”

Fair leaves of silvery olive they strewed upon the ground
While Salem’s circling mountains echoed the joyful sound
The Lord of men and angels rode on in lowly state
Nor scorned that little children should on His bidding wait
