In traditional Aramaic or Hebrew it means "help" or "save, I pray" and is specifically addressing a divine being, ie the God of the universe.
In Christianity it is both a cry for salvation and a declaration of praise.
SO COOL!
Thanks Wikipedia :D ... just the beginning of my looking into the word Hosanna, next check my Lexical Aid/Concordance Bible. (I don't know which one is what I need, don't know what they are called, do know how to use em.)
