At the clamoring crowd drawing near

Hear the shouts of Hosanna the King

Don't forsake Him, oh don't pass it by
    A minorAm           G+G
On the foal of a donkey as the prophets had said

Midst the shouting so loud and the joy of the crowd
     C majorC     BB     E minorEm
There is One who is riding in silence
    E minorEm       D MajorD      BB     Cmaj7Cmaj7
For He knows the ones here will be fleeing in fear

When their shepherd is taken away

     E minorEm      D MajorD      BB       E minorEm
Soon the thorn cursed ground will bring forth a crown

And the prophesies will be completed

On the foal of a donkey as the prophets had said
