Tell ye the daughter of Zion,
Tell ye the daughter of Zion:
Behold, thy King cometh unto thee,
Meek and sitting upon an ass.

Tell ye the daughter of Zion:
Behold, thy King cometh unto thee,
Behold, behold, thy King cometh unto thee.
Behold, thy salvation cometh,
Behold, thy salvation cometh,
His reward is with him and his work before him.
Behold, thy salvation cometh,
Behold, thy salvation cometh,
His reward is with him and his work before him,
His reward is with him and his work before him.
Tell ye the daughter of Zion,

Behold thy King cometh unto thee.
Tell ye the daughter of Zion,
Tell ye the daughter of Zion:
Behold, thy King cometh unto thee,
Behold, thy King cometh unto thee.
Behold, thy salvation cometh,

The stones would immediately cry out.
