All Glory, Laud and Honor


All Glory, Laud and Honor

Today is Palm Sunday and I want to share one of my favorite Palm Sunday hymn texts written way back in the 821’s. It was translated in the mid 1800’s. The text is rich with praise, adoration and worship:

All glory, laud and honor to You, Redeemer, King,
To whom the lips of children made sweet hosannas ring.
You are the King of Israel and David’s royal Son,
Now in the Lord’s name coming, our King and blessed One!

The company of angels are praising You on high,
Creation and all mortals in chorus make reply.
The people of the Hebrews with palms before You went;
Our praise and prayer and anthems before You we present.

To You, before Your passion, they sang their hymns of praise;
To You, now high exalted, our melody we raise.
As You received their praises, accept the prayers we bring.
For You delight in goodness, O good and gracious King!

Today is HIS day. Worship and adore Him – YOUR King, YOUR Redeemer and friend! – Bill Welte is President and CEO of America’s Keswick

Compass Pointers: When Christians say the Christ-life is in them, they do not mean simply something mental or moral. When they speak of being "in Christ" or of Christ being "in them," this is not simply a way of saying that they are thinking about Christ or copying Him. They mean that Christ is actually operating through them...
