Matthew 21:9
The crowds that went ahead of him and that followed were shouting,
“Hosanna to the Son of David!
Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord!
Hosanna in the highest heaven!”
Hosanna'
Lord save us
cried the children
mimicking their elders
Hosanna
Lord save us
cried the weary
pleading for an easier load
Hosanna
Lord save us
cried the women
longing for compassion
Hosanna
Lord save us
cried the outcasts
hoping for acceptance
Hosanna
Lord save us
cried the disciples
still confused about their journey
And who are the folk today crying
Hosanna
Lord save us
Seeking companionship
on their journey
compassion and acceptance
along the way
a lightening of the load
and purpose
for each new day
Hosanna
Lord save us
A cry that awaits
our response today.
