Monday Mix Tape: the Hosanna edition

I just lost a whole wonderful post about my family and the things we've been doing together the past weeks.  I'm so disappointed!  I guess a prayer and a song are the best I've got to offer today.


From Everyday Liturgy:

God Almighty, we look to you as the coming king,
knowing that your kingdom is not gained through the powers of this world,
but is a kingdom not of this world.
We lay down our clothes and praise your name,
asking that your kingdom come
and your will be done
on earth as it is in heaven.

Amen.

[the line "We lay down our clothes and praise your name" reminded me of this.]

Sojourn Church re-worked one of their songs from Advent for the narrative of Jesus' triumphal entry.  I think the word "Hosanna!" is a prayer I need to know and use often these days.

God, save us now!
