Ride on! Ride on in Majesty
"See your king comes to you, gentle and riding on a donkey"...Matt. 21:5
Ride on! Ride on in majesty!
Hark! All the tribes "Hosanna! 'Cry;
O saviour meek, pursue thy road
With palms and scattered garments strowed
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
Ride on! Ride on in majesty!
The winged squadrons of the sky
Look down with sad and wandering eyes
To see the approaching sacrifice.
Ride on! Ride on in majesty!
Thy last and fiercest strife is nigh;
The father on His sapphire throne
Awaits His own anointed son
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.
HENRY HART MILMAN, 1791 - 1868
