Hosanna to the Coming Lord

Author: Reginald Heber Hymnal: CWLH1993 #21 (1993) First Line: Hosanna to the coming Lord! Lyrics: 1 Hosanna to the coming Lord! Hosanna to the incarnate Word! To Christ, Creator, Savior, King Let earth, let heav'n hosanna sing. 2 O Savior, with protecting care Abide in this your house of prayer, Where we your parting promise claim, Assembled in your sacred name. 3 O Advent King, our sins forgive; Come in our lives and hearts to live, And let our humble souls become A temple worthy of your name. 4 Then in the last and dreadful day, When earth and heav'n shall melt away, Your flock, redeemed from sinful stain, Shall swell the sound of praise again.
