1 Hosanna now through Advent
With loving hearts we sing,
For Jesus Christ is coming
To be his children’s king.

2 Hosanna! Blessed Jesus,
Come in our hearts to dwell,
And let our lives and voices
Your praise and glory tell.

3 Hosanna! Let this welcome
Ring out from ev'ry heart;
Draw near to us, O Jesus,
And nevermore depart.

4 So when we see you coming
With angels in the sky,
Hosanna, loud hosanna
Shall be your children's cry.
