Sing Hosanna

Song: Sing Hosanna
Sing hosanna, sing hosanna
Sing hosanna to the King of kings,
Sing hosanna, sing hosanna
Sing hosanna to the King...

Give me oil in my lamp, keep me burning,
Give me oil in my lamp I pray,
Give me oil in my lamp, keeping me burning,
Keep me burning 'till the break of the day.
[Repeat: Sing hosanna]

Matthew 21:5-11, 15-16 KJV "The Entrance Into Jerusalem"
Tell ye the daughter of Sion [people of Jerusalem], Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass [donkey], and a colt the foal of an ass [donkey]. And the disciple went, and did as Jesus commanded them, And brought the ass [donkey], and the colt, and put on them their clothes, and they set him thereon. And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way: others cut down branches from the trees, and strowed [scattered] them in the way. And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, HOSANNA TO THE SON OF DAVID: BLESSED IS HE THAT COMETH IN THE NAME OF THE LORD; HOSANNA IN THE HIGHEST. And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city were moved, saying Who is this? And the multitude said, THIS IS JESUS THE PROPHET OF NAZARETH OF GALILEE. And when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, HOSANNA TO THE SON OF DAVID; they were sore [very] displeased [unhappy], And said unto them him, Hearest thou what these say: And Jesus saith unto the, YEA; HAVE YE NEVER READ, 'OUT OF THE MOUTH OF BABES AND SUCKLINGS [breast fed] THOU HAST PERFECTED PRAISE?' John 12:12-13 KJV On the next day much people that were come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried, HOSANNA: BLESSED IS THE KING OF ISRAEL THAT COMETH IN THE NAME OF THE LORD.

Dorothy: Hosanna means a shout of praise to the Lord. [Hebrew hoshi'ah nna means save now, we pray]. Just this morning, Holy Spirit sang, "Hosanna to the King". There's an excitement in heaven that Jesus is coming soon. Holy Spirit is the symbol of oil to keep us burning until Jesus comes again. HOSANNA TO THE COMING KING. SAVE US NOW FROM THE HOUR OF TROUBLED TIME, WE PRAY. AMEN!
