HOLY WEEK HYMNS: PALM SUNDAY
ALL GLORY, LAUD, AND HONOR
In Jesus' Steps | John 12:13
Jesus rides triumphantly into Jerusalem on a donkey. The crowds wave palm branches to welcome Him as their King.
We remember that Jesus is King of kings.
Watch the video and read the lyrics below.
All glory, laud, and honor
To You, Redeemer, King!
To whom the lips of children
Made sweet hosannas ring.
You are the King of Israel,
And David’s royal Son,
Now in the Lord’s Name coming,
Our King and Blessed One.
The company of angels
Are praising You on high;
And mortals, joined with all things
Created, make reply.
The people of the Hebrews
With palms before You went;
Our praise and prayers and anthems
Before You we present.
To You before Your passion,
They sang their hymns of praise;
to You, now high exalted,
Our melody we raise.
Their praises You accepted;
Accept the prayers we bring,
Great source of love and goodness,
Our Savior and our King.
By Theodulph, Bishop of Orleans, c. 820 (translated by John Mason Neale, 1854)
