Author: Henry Hart Milman, 1791-1868 Hymnal: Worship Supplement #727 (1969) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Hymnal Title: Worship Supplement Lyrics: 1 Ride on, ride on in majesty!
Hark! All the tribes hosanna cry.
0 Savior meek, pursue your road,
With palms and scattered garments strowed.
2 Ride on, ride on in majesty!
In lowly pomp ride on to die.
0 Christ, your triumphs now begin
O'er captive death and conquered sin.
3 Ride on, ride on, in majesty!
The angel armies in the sky
Look down with sad and wondering eyes
To see the approaching Sacrifice.
4 Ride on, ride on in majesty!
Your 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 your meek head to mortal pain,
Then take, 0 Christ, your power and reign! Topics: The Christian Year Palm Sunday Tune Title: THE KING'S MAJESTY
Ride On, Ride On in Majesty
