Hosanna (In the Highest): A Deep Meditation on Adoration and Salvation (Matthew 21:9) | Christian Instrumental

Share!

Experience the triumphant and restorative spirit of “Hosanna” in this peaceful instrumental arrangement. This rendition is designed to provide a worshipful atmosphere for prayer and exaltation, centering on the cry of adoration that greeted the King of Kings.

The Scriptural Foundation
This worship anthem is rooted in the “Triumphal Entry” recorded 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!'”
While we often use “Hosanna” as a shout of praise today, its Hebrew roots (Hoshana) literally mean “Save us now.” It is both a declaration of Christ’s sovereignty and a humble plea for His redemptive presence.

The Story Behind the Song
Written in 1985 by Carl Tuttle, this song emerged during the early years of the Vineyard Movement and quickly became a foundational piece for modern contemporary worship. Tuttle, a key figure in developing the intimate “worship-style” of the 80s and 90s, composed this song to bridge the gap between biblical liturgy and personal devotion. By focusing on the exaltation of God above all else, “Hosanna” invites the believer to lift up the name of the Lord with a “heart full of praise.”
