Palm Sunday Prayer

When I think of Palm Sunday my mind often wanders to the account in the gospel of John where it is reported that, with shouts of Hosanna, palm branches were laid before Jesus as he rode into Jerusalem on a donkey. Interesting enough there is another passage of scripture in Revelation that mentions branches of palm. Please join me on this Palm Sunday in reading and praying this passage:

After this I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and in front of the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands. And they cried out in a loud voice:

"Salvation belongs to our God,
who sits on the throne,
and to the Lamb."

All the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures. They fell down on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, saying:

"Amen!
Praise and glory
and wisdom and thanks and honor
and power and strength
be to our God for ever and ever.
Amen!"
Amen! For ever and ever!
