Prelude
Welcome
Announcements
Call to Worship - Psalm 51:1-12
Hymn of Praise - #297 “Hosanna, Loud Hosanna”
Verse 1
Hosanna loud hosanna
The little children sang
Through pillared court and temple
The lovely anthem rang
To Jesus who had blessed them
Close folded to His breast
The children sang their praises
The simplest and the best
Verse 2
From Olivet they followed
Mid an exultant crowd
The victor palm branch waving
And chanting clear and loud
The Lord of earth and heaven
Rode on in lowly state
Nor scorned that little children
Should on His bidding wait
Verse 3
Hosanna in the highest
That ancient song we sing
For Christ is our Redeemer
The Lord of heaven our King
O may we ever praise Him
With heart and life and voice
And in His blissful presence
Eternally rejoice
