1 Daughter of Zion, shout with joy, Thy King and Savior see! Meek, riding on an ass, a foal, Behold! He comes to Thee! In the Lord’s name He comes! Hosannas sing, Daughter of Zion, shout! Behold thy King! 2 The foal was yet untamed, and bound; But the Apostles say, The Lord hath need of him; they loose, And garments on him lay; Palms strew the road, on him the Lord doth ride To Zion’s gate, the mother at his side. 3 So, Lord, the heathen world, untamed, Was bound by chains of sin, But loosed by apostolic hands To Zion enters in: Christ rides upon it: Guide us. Lord, that we In Thy Jerusalem may ever be. 4 Thou, Lord, who once didst meekly ride Upon the foal, art He Who rideth on the heavens, the clouds Are chariots to Thee; Thou on the wings of mighty winds dost fly, The cherubim bear up Thy majesty. 5 I saw Heav’n opened: I beheld One on a white horse ride, Followed by armies out of Heav’n In white robes glorified; His eyes like fire, their rays like flaming swords, His name is King of Kings, and Lord of Lords! 6 Such at Thy second coming Thou Wilt be, at that great day; O help us by Thy Spirit now Ill works to cast away, To walk in love, as children of the light, And follow Thee in vestments pure and white. | The Cyber Hymnal #15716 |
