The Savior rode a colt
into Jerusalem.
With palms and cloaks they lined his way
with shouts to welcome him.
Blest is the One who comes:
Hosanna, David's son.
A king to set us free is here:
fulfillment has begun.
Ahead the darkness lurks,
a cross only One could see.
Help us, your church, to show this cross
and share its great mercy.
