Words: Reginald Heber, 1811.
Music: "Hosanna," John Bacchus Dykes, 1865 |
Hosanna to the living Lord!
Hosanna to the th'Incarnate Word!
To Christ, Creator, Savior, King,
Let earth, let heaven, Hosanna ring!
Refrain
Hosanna, Lord!
Hosanna in the highest!
"Hosanna, Lord!" Thine angels cry;
"Hosanna, Lord!" Thy saints reply;
Above, beneath us, and around,
The dead and living swell the sound:
Refrain
O Savior, with protecting care,
Return to this Thy house of prayer;
Assembled in Thy sacred Name,
Now we Thy parting promise claim:
Refrain
But chiefest, in our cleansèd breast,
Eternal, bid Thy Spirit rest,
And make our secret soul to be
A temple pure, and worthy Thee.
Refrain
So in the last and dreadful day,
When earth and heaven shall melt away,
Thy flock, redeemed from sinful stain,
Shall swell the sound of praise again.
Hosanna, Lord! Hosanna in the highest!
Refrain
