[English]

I see the King of glory

Coming on the clouds with fire

The whole earth shakes The whole earth shakes

I see His love and mercy Washing over all our sin

The people sing The people sing

Hosanna Hosanna

Hosanna in the highest

Hosanna Hosanna

Hosanna in the highest

I see a generation

Rising up to take their place

With selfless faith With selfless faith

I see a near revival

Stirring as we pray and seek

We're on our knees We're on our knees

Hosanna Hosanna

Hosanna in the highest

Hosanna Hosanna

Hosanna in the highest

Heal my heart and make it clean

Open up my eyes to the things unseen

Show me how to love Like You have loved me

Break my heart for what breaks Yours

Everything I am For Your kingdom's cause

As I walk from earth into eternity

Hosanna Hosanna

Hosanna in the highest

Hosanna Hosanna

Hosanna in the highest

Hosanna Hosanna

Hosanna in the highest

Hosanna Hosanna

Hosanna in the highest

Hosanna in the highest

Hosanna in the highest

Hosanna in the highest
