Lyrics
I am tangled up in contradiction
I am strangled by my own two hands
I am hunted by the hounds of addiction
Hosanna! I have lied to everyone who trusts me
I have tried to fall when I could stand
I have only loved the ones who loves me
Hosanna, oh Hosanna
See the long awaited king come to set his people free
We cry oh Hosanna, come and tear the temple down
Raise it up on holy ground, Hosanna
I have struggled to remove this raiment
Tried to hide every shimmering strand
I contend with these ghosts
And these hosts of bright angels
Hosanna! I have cursed the man that you have made me
As I have nursed the beast that bays for my blood
Oh, I have run from the one who would save me
Save me, Hosanna, oh Hosanna
See the long awaited king, come to set his people free
We cry oh Hosanna, come and tear the temple down
Raise it up on holy ground, Hosanna
You have crushed beneath your heel the vile serpent
You have carried to the grave the black stain
You have torn apart the temple's holy curtain
You have beaten death at death's own game
Hosanna, oh Hosanna, hail the long awaited King
Come to set his people free, we cry, oh Hosanna
Won't you tear this temple down, raise it up on holy ground
Oh Hosanna, I will lift my voice and sing
You have come and washed me clean, Hosanna
