557a. When in the Lord Jehovah's Name

1 When in the Lord Jehovah's Name,
The Saviour lowly riding came,
Loudest and first an infant throng
Greeted His coming with their song.
Hosanna in the highest!

2 We too are taught to know the Lord,
To fear His Name, to read His Word;
And though we simple are and young,
Can praise Him with our joyful song,
Hosanna in the highest!

Soon shall the Lord again pass by
to judgment from His throne on high;
And from the saints' assembled throng
Shall burst upon the world the song,
Hosanna in the highest!

Then may our youthful band be found
With coronals of triumph crowned;
Raising, the heavenly hosts among,
Our chorus of eternal song,
Hosanna in the highest!

Amen.
