Ride Forth to Conquer

Representative Text

1. Ride forth, ride forth to con­quer,
Thou great and glo­ri­ous King;
Thy arm shall bring sal­va­tion,
Thy praise the earth shall sing.

Refrain

Ride forth, ride forth,
In ma­jes­ty and might,
Till truth shall spread from pole to pole,
And all shall hail its light.

3. Ride forth, ride forth to con­quer!
Thy cha­ri­ot wheels draw near,
And shouts of joy and glad­ness
On ev­ery side we hear.

Refrain

3. Ride forth, ride forth to con­quer,
Thou sov’reign Lord of all,
Till mount­ain un­to mount­ain
And deep to deep shall call.

Refrain

4. The dist­ant isles of ocean
Shall stretch their hands to Thee,
And to Thy roy­al scep­ter
All na­tions bend the knee.

Refrain
