Prepare the Royal Highway

1    Prepare the royal highway;
    the King of kings is near!
    Let ev'ry hill and valley
    a level road appear!
    Then greet the King of glory,
    foretold in sacred story:


Refrain
    Hosanna to the Lord,
    for he fulfills God's word!


2    God's people, see him coming:
    your own eternal king!
    Palm branches strew before him!
    Spread garments! Shout and sing!
    God's promise will not fail you!
    No more shall doubt assail you!  Refrain


3    Then fling the gates wide open
    to greet your promised king!
    Your king, yet ev'ry nation
    its tribute too may bring.
    All lands will bow before him;
    their voices join your singing:  Refrain


4    His is no earthly kingdom;
    it comes from heav'n above.
    His rule is peace and freedom
    and justice, truth, and love.
    So let your praise be sounding
    for kindness so abounding:  Refrain
