1. See, the Conqu’ror mounts in triumph;
see the King in royal state,
riding on the clouds, his chariot,
to his heav’nly palace gate.
Hark! the choirs of angel voices
joyful alleluias sing,
and the portals high are lifted
to receive their heav’nly King.
2. He who on the cross did suffer,
He who from the grave arose,
He has vanquished sin and Satan;
He by death has spoiled His foes.
While He lifts His hands in blessing,
He is parted from His friends;
while their eager eyes behold Him,
He upon the clouds ascends.
3. Thou hast raised our human nature
on the clouds to God’s right hand;
there we sit in heav’nly places,
there with Thee in glory stand.
Jesus reigns, adored by angels,
man with God is on the throne;
mighty Lord, in Thine ascension
we by faith behold our own.

Includes Wide Format PowerPoint file!
Updated Format! Beginning in November of 2016, we changed the way we formatted our PowerPoint files. The font is larger and the staff lines are bolder, making the songs easier to read from a greater distance, including smaller screens/monitors in the rear of the sanctuary.
All songs digitized previous to that date are in the "older" format.
