As Our Lord Enter

"As Our Lord Enter" is a vibrant processional piece that takes us straight into the heart of Palm Sunday. The lyrics recount the moment Christ rode into Jerusalem, capturing the excitement of the Hebrew children and the crowds who gathered to welcome Him. It is a song of pure anticipation and joy, setting the perfect tone as the congregation gathers outside the church doors with their palm fronds at the start of Holy Week.

The melody builds a steady, marching momentum that mirrors a great procession moving toward the altar. As the verses unfold, they lead naturally into a joyful, repeating chorus of "Hosanna in the highest," giving the choir and the assembly a chance to lift their voices in triumphant praise. It is an ideal choice for the Entrance procession on Palm Sunday, helping the whole church step into the solemn yet celebratory spirit of the day before the reading of the Passion.
