O Bride of Christ, rejoice!
Exultant raise thy voice
To hail the day of glory,
Foretold in sacred story.

Refrain

Hosanna, praise and glory,
Our King, we bow before Thee.

Let shouts of gladness rise
Triumphant to the skies.
Here comes the King most glorious
To reign o'er all victorious

Refrain

He wears no kingly crown
Yet as a king He's known;
Though not arrayed in splendor,
He still makes death surrender.

Refrain

Thy heart now open wide,
Bid Christ with thee abide;
He graciously will hear thee,
And be forever near thee.

Refrain

E'en babes with one accord
With thee shall praise the Lord,
And every gentile nation
Respond with exultation.

Refrain
