Lyrics

Who is this man on the donkey?
Who are these people with palms?
Why does he ride to the Temple?
Why should we follow along?

Refrain: It is Jesus who enters the city;
Riding triumphantly on.
Follow him on to the Temple,
Sing Hosanna, Jerusalem's song.

Is he the one we have prayed for?
Is he King David's own son?
Is he the promised Messiah?
Is this our King who has come?

Refrain

When will he enter his kingdom?
When will he sit on his throne?
Israel, sing loud Hosannas;
Our King comes to gather his own.
