128. Crown Him King

1 Christ the Lord shall reign o’er all the realms of earth;
Crown him King of this his vast creation;
Spread thro’ lands abroad his wisdom and his worth;
Sound his praise to ev’ry tribe and nation.

Chorus:
Crown him King, the Lord of hosts on high,
Let ev’ry heart true homage bring;
Shout aloud the glad, exultant cry,
Extol his name and crown him King.

2 Christ the Lord shall live enthroned in ev’ry heart;
Crown him King o’er legions true and loyal;
At his word the hosts of sin must stand apart,
Overthrown by pow’r divine and royal. [Chorus]

3 Christ the Lord shall rule the kingdoms of the world;
Crown him King with songs of praise and glory,
While the banner of the cross shines out unfurled,
To proclaim redemption’s blessed story. [Chorus]
