1 Ride on, ride on in majesty
Hear all the tribes Hosanna cry;
O Savior meek, your road pursue,
with palms and scattered garments strewn.
2 Ride on, ride on in majesty,
in lowly pomp ride on to die;
O Christ, your triumph now begin
o'er captive death and conquered sin.
3 Ride on, ride on in majesty,
the hosts of angels in the sky
look down with sad and wondering eyes
to see the approaching sacrifice
4 Ride on, ride on in majesty,
in lowly pomp ride on to die;
bow your meek head to mortal pain,
then take, O Christ, your power and reign!
