Author: H.H. Milman Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #293 (1913) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Ride on! ride on in majesty!
Hark! all the tribes Hosanna cry:
0 Savior meek, pursue Thy road
With palms and scattered garments strowed.
2 Ride on, ride on in majesty!
In lowly pomp ride on to die!
0 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 wondering eyes
To see the approaching Sacrifice.
4 Ride on, ride on in majesty!
Thy 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, 0 God, Thy power and reign. Topics: The Church Year Sixth Sunday in Lent; The Church Year Sixth Sunday in Lent Tune Title: [Ride on! ride on in majesty!]
Ride on! ride on in majesty!
