Prayer for Palm Sunday
We praise
you, O God, for
your redemption of the world through Jesus Christ. Today he
entered
the holy city of Jerusalem in triumph and was proclaimed
Messiah and
King by those who spread garments and branches along his
way. Let
these branches be signs of his victory, and grant that we
who carry
them may follow him in the way of the cross, that, dying and
rising
with him, we may enter into your kingdom; through Jesus
Christ, who
lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, now and
forever. Amen.
