1 Our lesson now is o'er,
And we a happy throng,
With grateful hearts unite once more,
To raise a parting song.
Chorus:
Hosanna, hosanna,
Most joyfully we'll sing;
Hosanna, hosanna,
To Jesus Christ our King.
2 What gratitude we owe,
For richest blessing giv'n,
Yet what can little children do
To serve the God of heaven. [Chorus]
3 He never will despise
The smallest of our race;
And He'll regard the humble cries
Of all who seek His face. [Chorus]
4 We'll praise Him for His word,
We'll praise Him for His love,
We'll praise Him that our souls have heard,
His message from above. [Chorus]
