            All Glory Laud and Honour


            "The crowds that went ahead of Him and those that followed shouted, 'Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is He Who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!'" Matthew 21:9



            All glory, laud and honor,
            To Thee, Redeemer, King,
            To Whom the lips of children
            Made sweet hosannas ring.

            Thou art the King of Israel,
            Thou David's royal Son,
            Who in the Lord's Name comest,
            The King and Blessèd One.

            Refrain

            The company of angels
            Are praising Thee on High,
            And we with all creation
            In chorus make reply.

            Refrain

            The people of the Hebrews
            With psalms before Thee went;
            Our prayer and praise and anthems
            before Thee we present.

            Refrain

            To Thee, before Thy passion,
            They sang their hymns of praise;
            To Thee, now high exalted,
            Our melody we raise.

            Refrain

            Thou didst accept their praises;
            Accept the prayers we bring,
            Who in all good delightest,
            Thou good and gracious King.
