121a. Ride On, King Jesus

Ride on, King Jesus; no man can a hinder me.
Ride on, King Jesus; no man can a hinder me.

1. King Jesus rides the prophet's colt.
No man can a hinder me.
He rides it up thru Zion's roads.
No man can a hinder me. [Refrain]

2. His people waved the palm branch leaf.
No man can a hinder me.
They sang in front of the Pharisees.
No man can a hinder me. [Refrain]

3. If you want to find your way to God,
No man can a hinder me.
The gospel highway must be trod.
No man can a hinder me. [Refrain]

4. One day he'll come on a milk-white steed.
No man can a hinder me.
We'll cross the river and be freed.
No man can a hinder me. [Refrain]
