My Savior's coming in the sky,
I long to sing hosanna;
He'll take me up to Him on high,
I long to sing Hasanna.

3

*Chorus.*—It's good enough, good enough,
I long to sing Hosanna;
It's good enough, good enough,
I long to sing Hosanna.

4

I'll dwell with Him forevermore,
I long to sing Hosanna;
And shout his praises o'er and o 'er,
I long to sing Hosanna.

5

*Chorus.*—I'ts good enough, &c.

6

We'll dwell among the angels then,
And there we'll sing Hosanna;
And they'll repeat the loud Amen,
Hosanna, oh Hosanna.

7

*Chorus.*—It's good enough, &c.

8

And when we stand on that blest shore,
I long to sing Hosanna;
We shall be safe forevermore,
I long to sing Hosanna.

9

*Chorus.*—It's good enough, &c.

10

Oh blessed, blessed, blessed day,
I long to sing Hosanna;
When Christ will call us hence away,
And we shall sing Hosanna.

11

*Chorus.*—It's good enough, &c.

12

Oh blessed morning on us rise,
We long to sing Hosanna,
And gladden our uplifted eyes,
And let us sing Hosanna.

13

*Chorus.*—It's good enough, &c.

14

Then we will meet to part no more,
And join our glad Hosanna.
We'll shout it, shout o'er and o'er,
A long, a loud Hosanna.

15

*Chorus.*—It's good enough, &c.
