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 lifled 

     To receive their heavenly King.


2.  Who is this that comesin glory 

     With the trump of jubilee? 

     Lord of battle, GOD of armies 

     He has 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 an the Throne 

     Mighty LORD, in Thine Ascension 

     We by faith behold our own.  Amen
