During his arrest, Theodulf wrote "Gloria, laus et honor" for Palm Sunday. Although likely apocryphal, a 16th-century story asserted that Louis heard Theodulf sing "Gloria, laus et honor" one Palm Sunday, and was so inspired that he released Theodulf and ordered that the hymn be sung thereafter on every Palm Sunday.
Gloria, Laus et Honor is a Christian hymn composed and written by Theodulf of Orléans between 810 and 817, and sung as a processional for Palm Sunday, based on the story of Jesus's arrival in Jerusalem before his passion and death. It was most likely composed by Theodulph of Orléans in the early ninth century. [1]

[3] The hymn is viewed to be full of dramatic irony. [5] The third line of the first verse "Thine humble beast pursues his road" has been disliked by some hymn book editors.
