I thought that you might get some thoughts from this one
                *
	THE FIRST PALM SUNDAY
Did you ever wish that you had been
	With the crowd that Palm Sunday morn
When people shouted "Hosanna"
	And no one was forlorn?

To see Jesus coming to Jerusalem
	Upon a borrowed Jenny
If He had some enemies,
	They surly were not many.

No one tried to stop him
	As He threw the merchants out.
The only negative thing that was said
	Was when the children began to shout.

Yet in four short days it seems
	His popularity was all gone.
They held his trial so early
	He was condemned before dawn.

Now when you are tempted to fear people
	Or to value what they think or say,
Remember how soon they can change
	All in a single day.

Trust the one who changes not
	For He is a faithful friend,
And He is the only one
	On whom you can depend.

He said we should not be ashamed
 	Even if we have to stand alone,
Then He will not be ashamed of us
	When we stand before God's throne.
