VERSE 1:
All glory, laud and honor,
To Thee, Redeemer, King,
To Whom the lips of children
Made sweet hosannas ring.
Thou art the King of Israel,
Thou David’s royal Son,
Who in the Lord’s Name comest,
The King and Blessed One.

VERSE 2:
The people of the Hebrews
With palms before Thee went;
Our prayer and praise and anthems
Before Thee we present.
To Thee, before Thy passion,
They sang their hymns of praise;
To Thee, now high exalted,
Our melody we raise.

VERSE 3:
The heav'nly hosts of angels
Are praising Thee on High,
And mortal men and all things
Created make reply.
Thou dost accept their praises;
Accept the prayers we bring,
Who in all good delightest,
Thou good and gracious King!
