Text: | Ride On! Ride On in Majesty! |
Author: | H. H. Milman |
Tune: | CREATION |
Composer: | Haydn |
1 Ride on! ride on in majesty!
In lowly pomp ride on to die:
O Christ, Thy triumphs now begin
O'er captive death and conquered sin.
2 Ride on! ride on in majesty!
Hark! all the tribes hosanna cry;
O Savior meek, pursue Thy road
With palms and scattered garments strowed.
3 Ride on! ride on in majesty!
The winged squadrons of the sky
Look down with sad and wond'ring eyes
To see th' approaching sacrifice.
4 Ride on! ride on in majesty!
The last and fiercest strife is nigh;
The Father on His sapphire throne
Expects His own Anointed Son.
5 Ride on! ride on in majesty!
In lowly pomp ride on to die;
Bow Thy meek head to mortal pain,
Then take, O God, Thy pow'r, and reign.
