Rise Glorious Conqueror Rise
{ Rise Glorious Conqueror Rise DORT-Lowell Mason Rise, Glorious Conqueror, Rise } 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 yon portals throw! Saviour 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." |
