THE CONQUERER, by                    
First Line: Yesterday! Betrayed, forsaken, crucified
Last Line: To live forever at his side.
Subject(s): Jesus Christ


Yesterday!
Betrayed, forsaken, crucified,
By friend and foe alike, denied;
Between two thieves our Saviour died!

Today!
Risen, exalted, glorified,
By angelic hosts magnified;
Adored throughout the whole world wide!

Tomorrow!
He comes to claim His spotless bride,
Who for His coming long has cried--
To live forever at His side.
