Make Way for the King
John 12
Two of Jesus' friends went to look for a donkey. Jesus had told them just where to find it. It would be tied right by the village gate. It was going to be a special donkey. Jesus was going to ride on it. When the friends found the donkey, they took it to Jesus. They put their coats on its back, and Jesus got on it. When the people saw Jesus coming, they began to shout with joy. "Hosanna! Hosanna! Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord!" Some people cut branches from the palm trees. They laid the branches on the road. Other people spread their coats on the road, and they all praised God in loud voices for the wonderful things Jesus had done. Jesus rode to the city of Jerusalem. The crowds followed him. The leaders of the people were angry. "See how all the people follow Jesus now? They do not follow us anymore. We must get rid of him," they said.

Then we took a quick walk around campus.
March comes in like a LION.
Weather frog is dressed for a mild day.
We sat and waved the palm branches high and low, fast and slow, passed from hand to hand and waved them as we turned win a circle.
We marched fast. We march slow. We march around the room.
