PALM SUNDAY

- PALM SUNDAY -

“Look at the King! He is our King!
He will save Israel, Blessed is He.”
”This is our promised deliverer!” I think.
I know not what I ask for nor what I need.

But my belly is full and I like what I see.

It strikes me he rides on so humble a steed -
Palm branches tread by a donkey’s feet.
But I’m here for his power, his miraculous ways.
When I’m full and healthy, he gets all my praise.

While he’s riding high I will too ride the waves.

I call “Hosanna!” and yet I’m afraid
Of what these hands will call for in just a few days.
This triumphal entry has a note that sounds wrong,
What if this battle cry is a funeral song?

Is this a battle cry or a funeral song?
