Rob Gardner - Hosanna (Thy Savior Hath Come) lyrics

On the Sunday before Passover
As Jesus came nigh unto Jerusalem
For the feast, he sent two
Of his disciples, saying
Go ye into the village in
The which ye shall find
A colt tied: loose him and bring him hither

And they brought the colt to
Jesus: and they cast
Their garments upon him and
They set Jesus thereon
And a very great multitude spread
Their Garments in the
Way others cut down branches from the trees
And strawed them in the way
And when he was come nigh, even now at
The descent of the Mount of Olives
The whole multitude of the disciples began
To rejoice and praise God with
A loud voice for all the mighty
Works that they had seen

The promise of ages whom prophets foretold
For whom we have waited ere long
Hath come to redeem us from slavery's yoke
And deliver His people back home

Come Israel, come and see He who shall reign
In whom we will ever rejoice
We hear the sound of the glorious refrain
And it echoeth back in our voice

Hosanna, hosanna, thy Savior hath come
O Israel and blessed He'll ever be called
Hosanna, hosanna, sing praises to God
For our hope, our deliv'rer, our all

Oh, why should we wander
As strangers from thee?
And turn from thy bounteous hand?
Restore (and defend us, oh) , set us free
That beside thee, we ever may stand

He looks and ten thousands of angels rejoice
And myriads wait for his word
He speaks and eternity, filled with His voice
Re-echoes the praise of her Lord

Hosanna, hosanna thy Savior hath come
Our Hope! Our Salvation! Our All!
