[Verse]
If we Dmstand here Gtogether
And we sFee the world as Aone
We may Dmthink there's no Gfuture
But it's the Fsame for everyonAe
It's like the Dmworld has lost its Ghead
And it's like Fall the prophets saiAd
But will we arisDmeG  
to a new worldF  A  
[Verse]
If we sDmtand here Gtogether,
We can lFaugh at what we've Adone,
All our Dmtime has been Gwasted,
And there's Fnowhere left to run.A  
There may be Dmtrouble up aheadG  
Will we be sFleeping in our bedAs
Or will we arDmise  HoGoo
to a new wForld, ooohhA  
Look for signs and portents
Ohh, I'm looking for a reason
to believe
[Verse]
Will we Dmarise in our Gtime
At the dFawn of another mAeaning
Will we Dmawake at the Gbreak
of a FGreat HosannahA  
Well if there's Dmnothing left to doG  
Just hold your bFreath and hope it's Atrue
Or will we arDmise HoooG  
to a new wForldA  
[Interlude]
Look for signs and portents
Oh there's got to be a reason
To believe
[Verse]
Will we Dmarise in our Gtime
At the dFawn of another mAeaning?
Will we Dmawake at the Gbreak
of a FGreat HosannAah?
Well if there's Dmnothing left to dGo
Just hold your bFreath and hope it's Atrue
That we'll arDmiseG

The story behind the song

"Great Hosannah" captures Kula Shaker's signature blend of psychedelic rock with a spiritual, Eastern-influenced perspective. The song carries a sense of shared purpose and resilience, speaking to the idea that if we stand together, we can face whatever challenges lie ahead, much like "all the prophets said." It suggests a belief that even through trouble, there's a promise that "we'll arise." At its heart, it's a call to unity and hope, looking towards a collective triumph.
