See the Conqueror mounts in triumph

Author: Bp C. Wordsworth Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #126 (1894) Meter: 8.7 D Topics: Ascensiontide Lyrics: 1 See the Conqueror mounts in triumph; See the King in royal state, Riding on the clouds, His chariot, To His heav'nly palace gate! Hark! the choir of angel voices Joyful alleluias sing, And the portals high are lifted To receive their heavenly King. 2 Who is this that comes in glory, With the trump of jubilee? Lord of battles, God of armies, He hath 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 While He raised His hands in blessing, He was 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 everlasting home. 4 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 Double portion of His grace. 5 Thou hast raised our human nature On the clouds to God's right hand: There we sit in heavenly places, There with Thee in glory stand. Jesus reigns, adored by angels; Man with God is on the throne; Mighty Lord, in Thine Ascension, We by faith behold our own. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: [See the Conqueror mounts in triumph]

Thou art gone up on high

Author: E. Toke Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #127 (1920) Topics: Lent Ascensiontide Lyrics: 1 Thou art gone up on high To mansions in the skies; And round Thy throne unceasingly The songs of praise arise: But we are lingering here, With sin and care opprest; Lord, send Thy promised Comforter, And lead us to Thy rest. 2 Thou art gone up on high; But Thou didst first come down, Through earth's most bitter agony, To pass unto Thy crown; And girt with griefs and fears Our onward course must be; But only let that path of tears Lead us at last to Thee. 3 Thou art gone up on high; But Thou shalt come again, With all the bright ones of the sky Attendant in Thy train. Lord, by Thy saving power, So make us live and die, That we may stand, in that dread hour, At Thy right hand on high. Languages: English Tune Title: OLIVET

Majestic sweetness sits enthroned

Author: S. Stennett Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #129 (1920) Topics: Lent Ascensiontide Lyrics: 1 Majestic sweetness sits enthroned Upon the Saviour's brow: His head with radiant glories crowned, His lips with grace o'erflow, His lips with grace o'erflow. 2 No mortal can with Him compare, Among the sons of men; Fairer is He than all the fair That fills the heavenly train. 3 He saw me plunged in deep distress, He flew to my relief; For me He bore the shameful cross, And carried all my grief. 4 To Him I owe my life and breath, And all the joys I have; He makes me triumph over death, And saves me from the grave. 5 To heaven, the place of His abode, He brings my weary feet; Shows me the glories of my God, And makes my joys complete. 6 Since from His bounty I receive Such proofs of love Divine, Had I a thousand hearts to give, Lord, they should all be Thine.
