Tune: St Theodulph
(\'All glory, laud, and honour\')
Matthew 21 v.1-11 parts
*********
Chorus
See, Jesus rides a donkey
In great humility
The procession makes its way
Unto [Jeru]Salem that day
All this was done, that it might
Be viewed unto the sight
Fulfilling of prophecy
Zechariah\'s it be - Chorus
It is, Tell Zion\'s daughter
That the Lord has sought her
Her king comes unto her, meek
Lowly, her love does seek - Chorus
He sitting on a donkey
Rides on through the crowd free
And donkey\'s colt, company
That day in history - Chorus
Great multitudes spread garments
In the way, they did sense
Their Lord and their King\'s presence
As He journeyed on thence - Chorus
Some cut down branches from palms
Waved them, as giving alms
Or spread them in the road there
In worship they did share - Chorus
They all did cry, Hosanna* (*\'Save now\')
To son of David sure
Blessed He that comes in the name
Of the Lord, Christ the same - Chorus
Hosanna in the highest
Thus their lips they confessed
Jesus the prophet is He
One from Nazareth, see - Chorus
