A modern reworking of an older hymn See, the Conqueror Mounts in Triumph by Christopher Wordsworth, 1807-1885 1. See, the Conqueror mounts in triumph; See the King in royal state, Riding on the clouds, His chariot, To His heavenly palace gate! Hark, the choirs 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 hath vanquished sin and Satan; He by death hath spoiled His foes. 3. Thou hast raised our human nature On the clouds to Gods 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.
