Rise, Glorious Conqueror, Rise,
Into Thy Native Skies;
Assume Thy Right;
And Where In Many A Fold
The Clouds Are Backward Rolled
Pass Through Those Gates Of Gold,
And Reign In Light!

Victor O’er Death And Hell!
Cherubic Legions Swell
Thy Radiant Train;
Praises All Heaven Inspire;
Each Angel Sweeps His Lyre,
And Waves His Wings Of Fire
Thou Lamb Once Slain!

Enter, Incarnate God!
No Feet But Thine Have Trod
The Serpent Down:
Blow The Full Trumpets, Blow!
Wider Your Portals Throw!
Savior Triumphant, Go
And Take Thy Crown!

Lion Of Judah, Hail!
And Let Thy Name Prevail
From Age To Age;
Lord Of The Rolling Years,
Claim For Thine Own The Spheres,
For Thou Hast Bought With Tears
Thy Heritage!

And Then Was Heard Afar
Star Answering To Star-
“Lo! These Have Come
Followers Of Him Who Gave
His Life Their Lives To Save;
And Now Their Palms They Wave,
Brought Safely Home.”
