Risen!: A Glimpse into the Heart of the First Easter

by Jessica Coupé

These lyrical vignettes take you into the midst of Jesus' last week. Come away with a fresh look at Jesus' teachings, humility and atonement and the effect He had on his disciples then and now.

Hosanna, to the Son of David!”

And many spread their garments in the way…And they that went before, and they that followed, cried, saying, "Hosanna; Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Blessed be the kingdom of our father David, that cometh in the name of the Hosanna in the highest." And Jesus entered into Jerusalem... (Mark 11:8-11)

Here He comes
through the gate
riding on a donkey—
as if He were an ordinary man
instead of the Healer
come from Galilee!”

They say He gives
sight to the blind
and after His word
the lame walk
and even leprosy is cured!

Do you see?
Let us run,
wave our palm leaves
and give the
“Hosanna, Hosanna,
to Him who comes
in the name of the Lord!”
