Come, let’s shout joyfully to the Lord
shout triumphantly to the rock of our salvation!
Let’s enter his presence with thanksgiving;
let’s shout triumphantly to him in song.

For the Lord is a great God,
a great King above all gods.
For he holds the craggy mountains
and the trenches of the deepest oceans in his hands

He topped the seas off with water
and shaped the dry land
Come, let’s worship and bow down;
let’s kneel before the Lord our Maker.
For he is our God,
and we are the people of his pasture,
the sheep under his care.

Hosanna
I love you
You are the joy of my heart
You are the strength of my life

Hosanna
You’re worthy
Worthy of all of the praise
Your majesty reigns

Hosanna
You’re so faithful
You are always there
To answer my prayers

Hosanna
You’re so holy
We reverence your name
My life you did change

Hosanna, Hosanna,
Hosanna, Hosanna

Yes the world will bow down and say You are God
Every man will bow down and say You are King
So let’s start right now; why would we wait?

King of Glory fill this place
We just wanna be with You, just wanna be with You
King of Glory fill this place
Just wanna be with You, just wanna be with You

So we’ll sing Hallelujah
Until You come again
And we’ll dance in Your Presence
Until You come again
I’ll just sing Hallelujah
Until You come again
And I’ll dance in Your Presence
Until You come again

We will sing Hallelujah
Until You come again
And we’ll dance in Your Presence
Until You come again
We will sing Hallelujah
Until You come again
And we’ll dance in Your Presence
Dance in Your Presence
Dance in Your Presence
Dance in Your Presence

God of peace, You have shown us the way of peace.
You made us Your friends when we were once Your enemies.
You invite us to reflect that peace in the world You love.
Yet we confess—we often choose striving over trust.

We keep busy schedules and live beyond our limits.
We forget that You are enough for us and for our families.
Our passions wage war within us,
leading to division, impatience, and harm.

God of peace, make us people of peace again.
Cleanse our hearts. Restore our worship.

           — James 4:1, Romans 12:15

We bow our hearts we bend our knees
Spirit come make us humble
We turn our eyes from evil things
Lord we cast down our idols

Give us clean hands give us pure hearts
Let us not lift our souls to another
Give us clean hands give us pure hearts
Let us not lift our souls to another

oh God let us be a generation that seeks
That seeks Your face oh God of Jacob
And oh God let us be a generation that seeks
That seeks Your face oh God of Jacob

Christians, how can you stand before God?
Only because Christ Jesus practiced perfect obedience and died in my place.

What is the source of your joy?
That Jesus rose from the dead and thus began his mission to redeem all things.

How do you have hope in such a broken world?
Because we believe Jesus will return to save his people, to destroy sin once and for all, and to gather us to worship the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit for all eternity.
Praise be to our God!

In Christ alone my hope is found,
He is my light, my strength, my song;
This Cornerstone, this solid Ground,
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
What heights of love, what depths of peace,
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease!
My Comforter, my All in All,
Here in the love of Christ I stand

In Christ alone, who took on flesh,
Fullness of God in helpless babe!
This gift of love and righteousness,
Scorned by the ones He came to save:
ʻTil on that cross as Jesus died,
The wrath of God was satisfied
For every sin on Him was laid;
Here in the death of Christ I live

There in the ground His body lay,
Light of the world by darkness slain:
Then bursting forth in glorious Day
Up from the grave He rose again!
And as He stands in victory
Sinʼs curse has lost its grip on me,
For I am His and He is mine
Bought with the precious blood of Christ.

No guilt in life, no fear in death,
This is the power of Christ in me;
From lifeʼs first cry to final breath,
Jesus commands my destiny.
No power of hell, no scheme of man,
Can ever pluck me from His hand;
Til He returns or calls me home,
Here in the power of Christ Iʼll stand!

Luke 19:28-48

28 When he had said these things, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem. 29 As he approached Bethphage and Bethany, at the place called the Mount of Olives, he sent two of the disciples
30 and said, “Go into the village ahead of you. As you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, on which no one has ever sat. Untie it and bring it.
31 If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ say this: ‘The Lord needs it.’”
32 So those who were sent left and found it just as he had told them.
33 As they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, “Why are you untying the colt?”
34 “The Lord needs it,” they said.
35 Then they brought it to Jesus, and after throwing their clothes on the colt, they helped Jesus get on it.
36 As he was going along, they were spreading their clothes on the road.
37 Now he came near the path down the Mount of Olives, and the whole crowd of the disciples began to praise God joyfully with a loud voice for all the miracles they had seen:

38 Blessed is the King who comes
in the name of the Lord.
Peace in heaven
and glory in the highest heaven!

39 Some of the Pharisees from the crowd told him, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples.”
40 He answered, “I tell you, if they were to keep silent, the stones would cry out.”

41 As he approached and saw the city, he wept for it,
42 saying, “If you knew this day what would bring peace—but now it is hidden from your eyes.
43 For the days will come on you when your enemies will build a barricade around you, surround you, and hem you in on every side.
44 They will crush you and your children among you to the ground, and they will not leave one stone on another in your midst, because you did not recognize the time when God visited you.”

45 He went into the temple and began to throw out those who were selling,
46 and he said, “It is written, my house will be a house of prayer, but you have made it a den of thieves!”
47 Every day he was teaching in the temple. The chief priests, the scribes, and the leaders of the people were looking for a way to kill him,
48 but they could not find a way to do it, because all the people were captivated by what they heard.

–Luke 19:28-48

Big Idea: Jesus reveals Himself as the true and humble King whose coming demands a response, brings peace in an unexpected way, and exposes false worship while offering true restoration.

1.  Context Summary

• Jesus’ journey through Palestine reaches its climax in Jerusalem, where long-held Messianic expectations collide with God’s unexpected fulfillment of His promises through Jesus’ kingship.

2. Scene 1: Coming Down the Mountain (Luke 19:28–40)

• Jesus enters Jerusalem humbly on a donkey, intentionally fulfilling prophecy and openly revealing His identity as the promised King.

3. Scene 2: Jesus Laments Over Jerusalem (Luke 19:41–44)

• Jesus weeps over Jerusalem because it rejects the way of peace and fails to recognize God’s visitation.

4. Scene 3: Jesus Cleanses the Temple (Luke 19:45–48)

• Jesus restores the temple’s purpose by confronting corrupt worship and teaching with divine authority.

5. Invitation

• Jesus calls people to respond rightly to His kingship by trusting His way of peace, receiving His words, and pursuing true worship.

In the darkness we were waiting
Without hope without light
Till from heaven You came running
There was mercy in Your eyes
To fulfill the law and prophets
To a virgin came the Word
From a throne of endless glory
To a cradle in the dirt

Praise the Father Praise the Son
Praise the Spirit three in one
God of glory Majesty
Praise forever to the King of Kings

To reveal the kingdom coming
And to reconcile the lost
To redeem the whole creation
You did not despise the cross
For even in Your suffering
You saw to the other side
Knowing this was our salvation
Jesus for our sake You died

the morning that You rose
All of heaven held its breath
Till that stone was moved for good
For the Lamb had conquered death
And the dead rose from their tombs
And the angels stood in awe
For the souls of all who’d come
To the Father are restored

And the Church of Christ was born
Then the Spirit lit the flame
Now this gospel truth of old
Shall not kneel shall not faint
By His blood and in His Name
In His freedom I am free
For the love of Jesus Christ
Who has resurrected me
