And I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse, and He who sat on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and wages war. His eyes are a flame of fire, and on His head are many diadems; and He has a name written on Him which no one knows except Himself. He is clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God. And the armies which are in heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and clean, were following Him on white horses. From His mouth comes a sharp sword, so that with it He may strike down the nations, and He will rule them with a rod of iron; and He treads the wine press of the fierce wrath of God, the Almighty. And on His robe and on His thigh He has a name written, "KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS." - Revelation 19:11-16
Behold, a Rider on a strong white horse:
He comes from heaven, and in righteousness
He rules the nations; of all good, the source,
And all the wide world He will soon possess.
Our Lord and Savior, Faithful He and True,
With eyes like flaming fire, cometh now,
and on His head are many diadems
Filled with a dozen different sparkling gems.
The wine press of our God His feet will plow;
He comes with wars to soon make all things new.
The Word of God made flesh, His light will shine,
And round Him wraps a robe that's dipped in blood:
The blood of sinners there doth intertwine
With blood of martyrs, saints, a crimson flood.
Now rides He onward, army close behind,
And strikes He down the nations with a sword.
The wrath of God comes forth, yet not unkind,
For He is not just judge, but also Lord.
O, glory to the King of Kings on high,
And to the Lord of Lords who has come nigh!
