Hymns for Youth ‎#78

78. Ride On! Ride On in Majesty!

1. Ride on! ride on in majesty!
Hark! all the tribes hosanna cry;
Thy humble beast pursues his road
With palms and scattered 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!
In lowly pomp ride on to die:
Bow thy meek head to mortal pain
Then take, O God, thy power, and reign.
