A Palm Sunday Jubilation

Uses: Palm Sunday, Call to Worship, Introit Scripture: Matthew 21:1-11; Mark 11: 1-11; Luke 19:28-40 The unique quality of this Shaker tune is infectious to the listeners, wrapping them in a rustic blanket of sound. With new lyrics written especially for Palm Sunday, the lilting 6/8 feel suggests the swaying of palms, and the chorus delivers the energy of the triumphant shouts of praise. Brief in length, it might well serve as a processional or opening number, as it captures the festive elements associated with Christ's entry into Jerusalem. Finger cymbal part included.
