Only a humble person would ride a donkey instead of a horse
Most kings would choose a white steed as they followed destiny’s course
On this day of all days, Jesus accepted worldly praise
“Hosanna in the highest,” came from hearts that were ablaze

The only crown that waited was one made out of thorns
The King of all creation–with Adam’s curse adorned
He bore our sorrows, sins and guilt to set His people free
Then rose victorious from the grave by heaven’s set decree

He’s coming back to claim the earth on a horse that’s white
Brandishing a mighty sword–the nations he will fight
On His head are many crowns, He is the King of Kings
“Hosanna in the highest,” is what creation sings
