Holy Week at Essex Center UMC

You’re coming into town on your donkey tonight
It will permeate across the ages
Coming into town on your donkey tonight
And you’re wearing your garland
You’re coming into town on your donkey tonight
But you’ll be going out on a cross
You’ll be going out in the spirit

-Rickie Lee Jones, Donkey Ride
from the album The Sermon on Exposition Boulevard
