1 The Saviour of the World ( Luke 19. 36-44)
C G/D D D7 G C/G
G B7 C
See the Saviour of the World, He is coming,
Am7/D D7 G Am7/G
Riding humbly on a donkey into town.
G/Ab B7 C
See the joyful crowds all laying palms before him,
G/D D D7 G C/G G
On his way into Jerusalem.
Chorus
G C G Am
Hosanna (Hosanna) Hosanna (Hosanna)
G C G D7 G
Hosanna (Hosanna) Sanna- Hosanna (Sanna)
G B7 C
And the Scribes and Pharisees are standing watching,
Am7/D D7 G Am7/G
Hateful thoughts and accusations in their minds.
G/Ab B7 C
For the man now hailed ‘Messiah’ by the people,
G/D D D7 G C/G G
Boldly rides into Jerusalem.
G B7 C
And he looks upon his people with such longing,
Am7/D D7 G Am7/G
For he knows they’ll turn against him very soon.
G/Ab B7 C
Death is calling him, just waiting round the corner,
G/D D D7 G C/G G
Still he rides into Jerusalem.
