Author: Henry Hart Milman, 1791-1868 Hymnal: Revival Hymns and Choruses #176 (1970) First Line: Ride on, ride on in majesty! Lyrics: 1 Ride on, ride on in majesty!
Hark, all the tribes "Hosanna!" cry!
O Saviour meek, pursue Thy road
With palms and scatter'd garments strowed.
2 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.
3 Ride on, ride on in majesty!
The angel armies of the sky
Look down with sad and wond'ring eyes
To see th' approaching sacrifice.
4 Ride on, ride on in majesty!
Thy last and fiercest strive is nigh:
The Father on His sapphire throne
Awaits 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 power and reign. Topics: Passion and Cross Languages: English Tune Title: ST. DROSTANE
