They shouted out their praises, to Christ, the children's friend, who welcomes all with blessing, whose love will never end. 2 From Olivet they followed a large exultant crowd, the victor palm branch waving, and chanting clear and loud; bright angels joined the chorus, beyond the cloudless sky, 'Hosanna in the highest! Glory to God on high!' 3 "Hosanna in the highest!" That ancient song we sing, for Christ is our Redeemer, the Lord of heaven our King. Oh, may we ever praise him with heart and life and voice, and in his blissful presence eternally rejoice. Scripture: Matthew 21:1-17 Languages: English Tune Title: ELLACOMBE

Author: Edward Caswall (1814-1878) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #387 (2005) Meter: 8.8.7 D Topics: Life in Christ Christ Incarnate - Passion and Death Lyrics: 1 At the cross, her vigil keeping, stood the mournful Mother weeping, where he hung, the dying Lord; for her soul, of joy bereavèd, bowed with sorrow, deeply grievèd, felt the sharp and piercing sword. 2 Who, on Christ's dear Mother gazing, pierced with anguish so amazing, born of woman, would not weep? Who, on Christ's dear Mother thinking, such a cup of sorrow drinking, would not share her sorrows deep? 3 For his people's sins chastisèd she beheld her Son despisèd scourged, and crowned with thorns entwined; saw him then from judgment taken, and in death by all forsaken, till his spirit he resigned. 4 Jesus, may her deep devotion stir in me the same emotion, fount of love, Redeemer kind, that my heart, fresh ardour gaining, and a purer love attaining, may with thee acceptance find.

And can it be, that I should gain

Author: Charles Wesley (1707-1788) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #396b (2005) Topics: Life in Christ Christ Incarnate - Passion and Death Lyrics: 1 And can it be, that I should gain an interest in the Saviour's blood? Died he for me, who caused his pain -- for me, who him to death pursued? Amazing love! how can it be that thou, my God, shouldst die for me? Amazing love! How can it be that thou, my God, shouldst die for me? 2 'Tis mystery all: the Immortal dies! Who can explore his strange design? In vain the firstborn seraph tries to sound the depths of love divine. 'Tis mercy all! Let earth adore; let angel minds inquire no more. 'Tis mercy all! Let earth adore; let angel minds inquire no more. 3 He left his Father's throne above, -- so free, so infinite his grace -- emptied himself of all but love, and bled for Adam's helpless race: 'tis mercy all, immense and free; for, O my God, it found out me! 'tis mercy all, immense and free; for, O my God, it found out me! 4 Long my imprisoned spirit lay, fast bound in sin and nature's night; thine eye diffused a quickening ray; I woke, the dungeon flamed with light; my chains fell off, my heart was free, I rose, went forth, and followed thee. My chains fell off, my heart was free, I rose, went forth, and followed thee. 5 No condemnation now I dread; Jesus, and all in him, is mine! Alive in him, my living Head, and clothed in righteousness divine, bold I approach the eternal throne, and claim the crown, through Christ, my own. Bold I approach the eternal throne, and claim the crown, through Christ, my own. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 6:7 Languages: English Tune Title: SAGINA

Great God, your love has called us here

Author: Brian Wren (b. 1936) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #484 (2005) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Topics: Christ Incarnate Passion and Death Lyrics: 1 Great God, your love has called us here, as we, by love, for love were made. Your living likeness still we bear, though marred, dishonoured, disobeyed. We come, with all our heart and mind your call to hear, your love to find. 2 We come with self-inflicted pains of broken trust and chosen wrong, half-free, half-bound by inner chains, by social forces swept along, by powers and systems close confined yet seeking hope for humankind. 3 Great God, in Christ you call our name and then receive us as your own, not through some merit, right or claim, but by your gracious love alone. We strain to glimpse your mercy seat and find you kneeling at our feet. 4 Then take the towel, and break the bread, and humble us, and call us friends. Suffer and serve till all are fed, and show how grandly love intends to work till all creation sings, to fill all worlds, to crown all things. 5 Great God, in Christ you set us free your life to live, your joy to share. Give us your Spirit's liberty to turn from guilt and dull despair and offer all that faith can do while love is making all things new.
