I see the King of glory
Coming down the clouds with fire
The whole earth shakes

Verse 2
I see a generation
Rising up to take the 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
Rising up to take the 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

Bridge
Heal my heart and make it clean
Open up my eyes to the things I see
Show me how to love like you
Have loved
me
Break my heart for what breaks yours
Everything I am for your kingdom come
As I walk from earth into eternity
Open up my eyes to the things I see
Show me how to love like you
Have loved
me
Break my heart for what breaks yours
Everything I am for your kingdom come
As I walk from earth into eternity
Hosanna - In the Bible [Verses & Devotional]
The song Hosanna by Hillsong Worship is a powerful reminder of the love and mercy of our Lord. The lyrics speak of the King of glory coming down from the clouds with fire, and of his love and mercy washing over all our sin. It speaks of a generation rising up to take their place with selfless faith, and of a near revival stirring as we pray and seek.
The Bible speaks of this same love and mercy in many places. In Psalm 118:25-26, it says, “Save us, we pray, O Lord! O Lord, we pray, give us success! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! We bless you from the house of the Lord.” This is a reminder of the power of our Lord and of the importance of seeking Him in prayer.
The bridge of the song speaks of the need to open our eyes to the things we see, to love like Jesus has loved us, and to break our hearts for what breaks His. This is a reminder of the importance of living a life of selfless faith and of putting the needs of others before our own. In Matthew 22:37-40, Jesus says, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets.”
The song Hosanna is a powerful reminder of the love and mercy of our Lord and of the importance of living a life of selfless faith. May we all seek Him in prayer and love like He has loved us.
