Eternal God,

We would join our voices

to the birds and beasts and branches,

to the stars and skies and stones

as Jesus rides by in parade,

tossing out grace and joy and hope.

Hosanna, hosanna to the King.

But we know where this parade is headed;

we know the powers that the powers that be still wield.

And so we hold our place

 (and hold our signs) 

 and hold our breath

to hear him say "Today you will be with me - in Paradise".
