Hosanna to the King!

Author: Jennie Wilson Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #2554 First Line: Hosanna to the King Lyrics: 1. Hosanna to the King! Let happy voices ring The praise of Him who triumphed o’er the grave; He reigns as victor now, To Him in homage bow; Undying hope to us He gave. Refrain Hosanna to the King! Hosanna to the King! The dreaded sway of death is o’er; Hosanna to the King! O let the glad notes ring; Our Savior lives forevermore. 2. A crown more fair than morn His brow doth now adorn, And royal is the scepter in His hand; He entered death’s domain The victory to gain; All fears flee at our King’s command. [Refrain] 3. He rules in loving pow’r, And gives a blessèd dow’r Of lasting joy and comfort to His own; Hosanna to the King! A grateful tribute bring; All praise to Jesus on His throne! [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Hosanna to the King]
