See the Conqu’ror mount 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 hallelujahs sing
And the portals high are lifted
To receive
to receive
their heav’nly King.
Who is this that comes in glory
With the trump of jubilee?
Lord of battles
God of armies
He has gained the victory;
He who on the cross did suffer
He who from the grave arose
He has vanquished sin and Satan
He by death
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;
He who walked with God and pleased Him
Preaching truth and doom to come
He
our Enoch
is translated
To His home
to His home
to His
everlasting home.
Now our heavenly Aaron enters
With His blood
within the veil;
Joshua now is come to Canaan
And the kings before Him quail;
Now He plants the tribes of Israel
In their promised resting-place;
Now our great Elijah offers
Of His grace
of His grace
double portion of His grace.
He has raised our human nature
On the clouds to God’s right hand;
There we sit in heav’nly places
There with Him in glory stand.
Jesus reigns
adored by angels;
Man with God is on the throne;
Mighty Lord
in Thine ascension
We by faith
we by faith
we by
faith behold our own.
