The Victorious Warrior
Until now Christ has been pictured
As a Lion, Lamb, Judge, and now a
Victorious Warrior. He is riding
On a white horse a symbol of victory.
He is called the faithful and true,
The Word of God, and written on
His garment King of kings, and arrayed
In a garment sprinkled with blood.
Heavenly armies follow Him on
White horses. Nothing is said
About them being armed, but their
Leader is armed with a sharp sword.
The sword is a spiritual weapon
Of resistless might. With it he wins
The battle. In this pageant an angel
Invites the birds of heaven to a feast.
As the birds flock to the battlefield,
They feast on the carnage of kings,
Military captains, and men small
And great, enemies of God.
