Hosanna!

Happy (late) Easter, friends!

I have been working on an Easter song, and it’s ready to share. It’s called “Hosanna!” and it tells the story of Jesus Christ coming to visit the people in ancient America after his resurrection. This story is found in the Book of Mormon, in 3rd Nephi 11.

The word hosanna has 2 main meanings: one is a plea for divine help (“Save now!” as I’ve heard it translated). The other is an exclamation of praise. What a neat word.

I believe in a living Savior- He who died, was resurrected, and is closely involved in my life. I have come to know Him as gentle and loving, merciful and always ready to offer divine help- as much as I’m willing to accept. I love Him and am deeply grateful to Him.

Here is the recording and sheet music. Enjoy.
