Hosanna! to the royal Son,
⁠Of David's ancient line!
His natures two his person one,
⁠Mysterious and divine.

The root of David here we find,
⁠And offspring is the same,
Eternity and time are join'd
⁠In Emanuel's name.

Blessed he, that comes to wretched men
⁠With peaceful news from Heaven;
Hosanna's of the highest strain,
⁠To Christ, the Lord be given!

Let mortals ne'er refuse to take,
⁠Th' Hosanna on their tongues,
Lest rocks and stones should rise and break,
⁠Their silence into songs.
