30 Palm Sunday songs & hymns handpicked for church worship

What is Palm Sunday?

Palm Sunday is the final Sunday of the Lenten season.

It kick starts what is called ‘Holy Week’—the week during which Christ Jesus was arrested, put on trial, condemned and executed by crucifixion.

Palm Sunday commemorates the victorious arrival of Jesus into Jerusalem—an event described in the Gospels (Matthew 21:1–11).

When Jesus entered Jerusalem riding on a donkey and people celebrated His arrival by placing palms in His path and shouting, "Hosanna to the Son of David!” “Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!” “Hosanna in the highest heaven!".

Traditional churches like the Catholic Church remember this event by distributing palms to the congregation—a symbol of peace and triumph.

The date of Palm Sunday this year is March 20^th.
