Hosanna in the Highest--June 27, 2020

Hosanna to you, Lord Jesus;

hosanna in the highest heaven!

The life you died, you died to sin,

but the life you live, you live in God.

Forbid that I should refuse to let you in;

make me dead to sin and alive to God in you.

You have delivered my soul from death,

and my feet from falling, so that

I may walk before you,

in the light of life.
