|
<p>Crown Him with many crowns, the Lamb upon His throne.<br>
|
|
Hark! How the heavenly anthem drowns all music but its own.<br>
|
|
Awake, my soul, and sing of Him who died for thee,<br>
|
|
And hail Him as thy matchless King through all eternity.</p>
|
|
<p>Crown Him the virgin’s Son, the God incarnate born,<br>
|
|
Whose arm those crimson trophies won which now His brow adorn;<br>
|
|
Fruit of the mystic rose, as of that rose the stem;<br>
|
|
The root whence mercy ever flows, the Babe of Bethlehem.</p>
|
|
<p>Crown Him the Son of God, before the worlds began,<br>
|
|
And ye who tread where He hath trod, crown Him the Son of Man;<br>
|
|
Who every grief hath known that wrings the human breast,<br>
|
|
And takes and bears them for His own, that all in Him may rest.</p>
|
|
<p>Crown Him the Lord of life, who triumphed over the grave,<br>
|
|
And rose victorious in the strife for those He came to save.<br>
|
|
His glories now we sing, Who died, and rose on high,<br>
|
|
Who died eternal life to bring, and lives that death may die.</p>
|
|
<p>Crown Him the Lord of peace, Whose power a scepter sways<br>
|
|
From pole to pole, that wars may cease, and all be prayer and praise.<br>
|
|
His reign shall know no end, and round His piercèd feet<br>
|
|
Fair flowers of paradise extend their fragrance ever sweet.</p>
|
|
<p>Crown Him the Lord of love, behold His hands and side,<br>
|
|
Those wounds, yet visible above, in beauty glorified.<br>
|
|
No angel in the sky can fully bear that sight,<br>
|
|
But downward bends His burning eye at mysteries so bright.</p>
|
|
<p>Crown Him the Lord of Heaven, enthroned in worlds above,<br>
|
|
Crown Him the King to Whom is given the wondrous name of Love.<br>
|
|
Crown Him with many crowns, as thrones before Him fall;<br>
|
|
Crown Him, ye kings, with many crowns, for He is King of all.</p>
|
|
<p>Crown Him the Lord of lords, who over all doth reign,<br>
|
|
Who once on earth, the incarnate Word, for ransomed sinners slain,<br>
|
|
Now lives in realms of light, where saints with angels sing<br>
|
|
Their songs before Him day and night, their God, Redeemer, King.</p>
|
|
<p>Crown Him the Lord of years, the Potentate of time,<br>
|
|
Creator of the rolling spheres, ineffably sublime.<br>
|
|
All hail, Redeemer, hail! For Thou has died for me;<br>
|
|
Thy praise and glory shall not fail throughout eternity.</p>
