Coming through the Mount of Olives
People cheered Him all around
People threw cloaks before Him
They threw those cloaks right on the ground
Looking at Jerusalem
Jesus cried for people’s loss
Jesus cried for pain to come
Friends heard that sorrowful sound
Riding through the Golden Gate
On a donkey, as foretold
Children even gave Him praise
Jesus heard their joyful sound
Starting with a cleansing act
Where sacrifice was to abound
Knowing what money cannot buy
Benches were flipped right to the ground.
