Lyics

This is the day the Lord has made,

He calls the hours his own;

Let heaven rejoice, and earth be glad,

And praise surround the throne.



Today he rose and left the dead,

And  satan's empire fell;

Today the saints his triumphs spread,

And all his wonders tell.



Blest be the Lord who comes to men

With messages of grace;

Who comes in God the Father's name

To save our sinful race.



Hosanna in the highest strains

The church on earth can raise;

Hosanna!  Let the highest heavens

Award him nobler praise.



Hosanna to the Lord be given

In loudest, noblest strains!

Hosanna in the highest heavens!

The great Redeemer reigns.
