OSANNA to the Living Lord!

Hosanna to the Incarnate Word!

To Christ the Saviour, Christ the King,
Let earth and heaven Hosanna sing!

Hosanna, Lord! Thine angels cry,
Hosanna, Lord! Thy saints reply;
Above, beneath us and around,
The dead and living swell the sound.

O Saviour! with protecting care
Abide in this Thy house of prayer;
Where we, assembled in Thy Name,
The promise of Thy presence claim.

So in the last and dreadful day,
When earth and heaven shall pass away,
Thy people cleansed from sinful stain
Shall swell the sound of praise again.

To GOD the Father, GOD the Son,
And GOD the Spirit, Three in One,
Be honour, praise, and glory given,
By saints on earth and saints in Heaven.
Amen.

O! He comes in clouds descending, Once on earth for sinners slain; Thousand, thousand saints attending Swell the triumph of His train:

Halleluiah!

Halleluiah! Amen.

Every eye shall now behold Him,
Robed in awful Majesty:

They who set at nought and sold Him,
Pierced and nailed Him to the tree,

Deeply wailing,

Shall the true Messiah see.

Yea! Amen! let all adore Thee,
High on Thine eternal throne !
Saviour! take Thy power and glory,
Claim the kingdoms for Thine own!

O! come quickly!

Halleluiah! Amen.
