L. M.

An hosanna for the Lord's day, or, A new song of salvation by Christ.

Lo! what a glorious corner-stone

The Jewish builders did refuse;

But God hath built his church thereon,

In spite of envy and the Jews.

Great God, the work is all divine,

The joy and wonder of our eyes;

This is the day that proves it thine,

The day that saw our Savior rise.

Sinners, rejoice; and saints, be glad;

Hosanna, let his name be blest;

A thousand honors on his head,

With peace, and light, and glory rest!

In God's own name he comes to bring

Salvation to our dying race;

Let the whole church address their King

With hearts of joy and songs of praise.
