Hosanna
Marcela Gándara
A Divine Call for Healing and Revival
The song "Hosanna" by Marcela Gándara is a contemporary Christian worship anthem that expresses a deep longing for divine presence and spiritual renewal. The lyrics are a blend of adoration and a plea for personal transformation, set against the backdrop of a collective call for revival.
The opening lines, "Veo al rey de Gloria / Viene con fuego y poder," which translate to "I see the King of Glory / Coming with fire and power," set a tone of anticipation for a divine encounter. The repeated phrase "Todos verán" or "Everyone will see" emphasizes the universal nature of this revelation. The chorus, with its simple yet profound repetition of "Hosanna / Hosanna / Hosanna en las Alturas," echoes the biblical shouts of praise and adoration, which means "save us" or "help" in Hebrew, and is often associated with Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem.
The latter part of the song shifts from corporate worship to a more personal supplication. The singer asks for healing and cleansing, expressing a desire to see God's works and to love as God loves. The plea to be shown God's heart and to be aligned with His kingdom reflects a deep yearning for spiritual intimacy and alignment with divine purpose. The closing lines, "Contigo quiero estar por la eternidad," or "With you, I want to be for eternity," encapsulate the ultimate desire for an everlasting communion with the divine.
