It recalls the triumphal entry into Jerusalem, where people praised Him with hosannas and waved branches. The song also looks forward to Christ's return with heavenly armies to reign in justice and peace. It emphasizes worship, declaring Him blessed who comes in the name of the Lord, and invites the King of Glory to come.

Behold Your King is coming
He's coming to you
Humble and riding a donkey into Jerusalem
Branches are waving and voices are praising the King
And all the people sang...
Blessed is He who comes in the name of the LORD
Strong and mighty
Blessed is He who comes in the name of the LORD
Let the King of Glory come!
Say to the Daughter of Zion "Behold Your King"
The people rejoiced
With a powerful voice
At the mighty works they had seen
And if they were silent
The rocks would have cried out in praise
But all the people sang...
Blessed is He who comes in the name of the LORD
Strong and mighty
Blessed is He who comes in the name of the LORD
Let the King of Glory come!
Hosanna Mwana wa Daudi
Hosanna mfalme mkuu
Hosanna Mwana wa Daudi
Hosanna mfalme mkuu
Hosanna to the Son of David
Hosanna to the King of Kings
Hosanna to the Son of David
Hosanna to the King of Kings
Behold Your King is coming
He's coming again
With the armies of Heaven above to reign in Jerusalem
With justice and mercy and peace forever amen
With glory and honor and power and majesty when...
When all His people say...
Blessed is He who comes in the name of the LORD
Strong and mighty
Blessed is He who comes in the name of the LORD
Let the King of Glory come!
