All glory, praise and honour,
   to you, redeemer, king,
   to whom the lips of children
   made sweet hosannas ring.

1 You are the king of Israel,
great David's greater son;
you ride in lowly triumph,
the Lord's anointed one!
   All glory, praise...

2 The company of angels
are praising you on high,
and we with all creation
together make reply:
   All glory, praise...

3 The people of the Hebrews
with palms before you went;
our praise and prayer and anthems
before you we present.
   All glory, praise...

4 To you before your passion
they sang their hymns of praise;
to you, now high exalted,
our melody we raise.
   All glory, praise...

5 As you received their praises,
accept the prayers we bring,
for you delight in goodness
O good and gracious king!
   All glory, praise...
