Like the people in Jerusalem
on the Sunday of the Palms
the King triumphant
entering their midst
They did not know
the rest of the story
the pain of His suffering
and His dying on the cross
The willing sacrifice
humble to God’s calling
going to the grave
rising in victory
Promising to return
in victory in triumphant
we waiting hopeful, expectant
for the coming of our King
Like a people triumphant
all of creation
singing praises and watching
for the return of the Lord
Joy to the world
ahead of His coming
the promise alone
giving us much to give thanks
Holy, holy,
our Lord, God Almighty
may we be joyful, ready
when our God comes to the earth
