Hosanna to the noble King,
Who rides down Olive's Mound—
The blessed One, of David's line,
This joyful day is crowned.
Hosanna to the humble King,
Who rides upon a foal.
Raise psalms and palms to honor Him
With all your strength and soul.
Hosanna to the holy King;
Sing out with joy and dread;
Join in the children's Temple hymn
Lest stones cry out instead.
"Hosanna to the coming King!"
Shall rise from ev'ry shore—
To Olive's Mound He shall return
To reign forever more!
