See, the Conqueror Mounts in Triumph
Author: Christopher Wordsworth Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 198 hymnals Topics: Christians Triumph of Lyrics: 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 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 has spoiled his foes.
3 You have raised our human nature
in the clouds to God's right hand;
there we sit in heav'nly places,
there with you in glory stand:
Jesus reigns, adored by angels,
man with God is on the throne;
mighty Lord, in your ascension
we by faith behold our own.

now shall meet him in the air.

and bright with many an angel, and all the martyr throng.

the pastures of the blessed are decked in glorious sheen.

Let Our Choir New Anthems Raise
Author: Joseph the Hymnographer, ca. 800-883; John Mason Neale Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 61 hymnals Topics: Christians Triumph of Lyrics: 1 Let our choir new anthems raise,
wake the morn with gladness;
God himself to joy and praise
turns the martyrs' sadness:
bright the day that won their crown,
opened heav'ns bright portal,
as they laid the mortal down
and put on th'immortal.
2 Never flinched they from the flame,
from the torture never;
vain the foeman's sharpest aim,
Satan's best endeavor;
for by faith they saw the land
decked in all its glory,
where triumphant now they stand
with the victor's story.
3 Faith they had that knew not shame,
love that could not languish;
and eternal hope o'ercame
momentary anguish.
Up and follow, Christian men!
Press through toil and sorrow;
spurn the night of fear and then,
O the glorious morrow!

attend with constant care;
still walking in your Captain's sight,
and watching unto prayer.
From strength to strength go on;
wrestle and fight and pray;
tread all the pow'rs of darkness down,
and win the well-fought day.

wrestling on 'til life was ended,

on flow'ry beds of ease,
while others fought to win the prize,
and sailed thro' bloody seas?

Must I not stem the flood?
Is this vile world a friend to grace,
to help me on to God?
4 Since I must fight if I would reign:
increase my courage, Lord;
I'll bear the toil, endure the pain,
supported by thy Word.

shall conquer, though they die;
they view the triumph from afar,
and seize it with their eye.

and all thine armies shine
in robes of vict'ry through the skies,
the glory shall be thine. Scripture: 1 Timothy 6:12 Used With Tune: ARLINGTON
