Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
Ride on! ride on! in majesty
Hark! all the tribes Hosanna cry
Thy humble beast pursued His road
With palm and scatter'd garment strowed
REFRAIN
Ride on! ride on! ride on in majesty
Ride on! ride on! ride on in majesty
Ride on! ride on! in majesty
In lowly pomp ride on to die
VERSE 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.
VERSE 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.
VERSE 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
VERSE 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.
