lyrics

Maker of the universe,
Holy God, O Holy Word breathed life.
Loving people led astray,
You entered into our world of strife.
King of kings, Emmanuel,
Kneeling down and washing our own feet.
Priest among the prostitutes
Willed to bow and leave Your glory be.

You left Your throne above with all the heavens singing
The wonders of Your love:

Hosanna! Blessed is the One, the Son of David.
Hosanna! Blessed is the One, the Son of God
Who saves us!

Mighty Warrior, Great I AM,
Mocked and scorned just as a man condemned.
Ruler swarmed by seraphim
Choosing thorns as Your own crown and gems.
Yours was all the majesty
And yet as a humble King You came;
God of glory, Lord of all,
Leaning low to bear our guilt and shame.

Now Your people join in praise with all the earth declaring
The wonders of Your name!

Hosanna! Blessed is the One, the Son of David.
Hosanna! Blessed is the One, the Son of God
Who saves us!

Man of sorrows, knowing pain,
By Your own forgotten and betrayed.
Lamb made broken, Lord made weak;
Crucified and laid within a grave.
Last Adam, Faithful and True,
The power of hell could not hold You confined!
Trampling death in its own tomb,
Risen now victoriously,
Jesus, King, forever seated high!

Hosanna! Blessed is the One, the Son of David.
Hosanna! Blessed is the One, the Son of God
Who saves us!
