Ride on, Jesus, all-victorious,
Bear thy sword upon thy side;
None on earth can e’er withstand thee,
Nor yet hell, for all its pride:
At thy mighty name tremendous
Every foe is forced to yield;
Hushed in awe, creation trembles:
Come then, Jesus, take the field.
Rescue now our souls from bondage,
In thy morn of victory,
Batter down the doors of Babel,
Break the bars and set us free:
Let thy rescued hosts, exulting.
Troop to freedom, wave on wave,
Like the surge of mighty waters:
O come quickly, come and save!
Hark! I hear already, faintly,
Songs o vict’ry from afar,
Where the heirs of thy redemption
Hail thy triumph in the war.
Clad in robes of shining glory,
Palms of conquest in each hand,
Joyful hosts, to freedom marching,
Enter now the promised land.
