Palm Sunday Victory

I'm a little late with the Palm Sunday poem, but it's good just the same. :)

Palm Sunday Victory

They cut the branches from the trees

And strewed them in the way,

Because they knew their Lord and King

Would come along that day.

They sang hosanna to the King

And praised his holy name -

Now even in this modern day,

We, too, should do the same.

The Christ who came that palm-strewn way

To enter in the gate,

Will enter in your heart today,

So do not make him wait.

That palm-strewn path of long ago

Is still a victory sign

That Christ still comes along the way

Into your heart and mine.
