Crown Him with Many Crowns
Author: Matthew Bridges; Godfrey Thring Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Appears in 801 hymnals Topics: Christian Year-Eastertide Lyrics: 1 Crown him with many crowns,
the Lamb upon His throne;
hark! how the heavenly anthem drowns
all music but its own:
awake, my soul, and sing
of Him who died for thee,
and hail Him as thy matchless King
through all eternity.
2 Crown Him the Lord of life,
who triumphed o'er the grave,
and rose victorious in the strife
for those He came to save;
His glories now we sing
who died, and rose on high,
who died eternal life to bring,
and lives that death may die.
3 Crown him the Lord of peace,
whose power a scepter sways
from pole to pole, that wars may cease,
absorbed in prayer and praise.
His reign shall know no end,
and round His pierced feet
fair flowers of paradise extend
their fragrance ever sweet.
4 Crown Him the Lord of love!
Behold His hands and side,
those wounds, yet visible above,
in beauty glorified:
all hail, Redeemer, hail!
for Thou hast died for me!
Thy praise and glory shall not fail
throughout eternity. Used With Tune: DIADEMATA

Author: Christopher Wordsworth, 1807-85 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 219 hymnals Topics: The Christian Year Eastertide Lyrics: 1 Alleluya! Alleluya!
Hearts to heaven and voices raise;
Sing to God a hymn of gladness,
Sing to God a hymn of praise;
He who on the Cross a victim
For the world's salvation bled,
Jesus Christ, the King of glory,
Now is risen from the dead.
2 Christ is risen, Christ the first-fruits
Of the holy harvest field,
Which will all its full abundance
At his second coming yield;
Then the golden ears of harvest
Will their heads before him wave,
Ripened by his glorious sunshine
From the furrows of the grave.
3 Christ is risen, we are risen;
Shed upon us heavenly grace,
Rain, and dew, and gleams of glory
From the brightness of thy face;
That we, Lord, with hearts in heaven
Here on earth may fruitful be,
And by angel-hands be gathered,
And be ever safe with thee.
4 Alleluya! Alleluya!
Glory be to God on high;
To the Father, and the Saviour,
Who has gained the victory;
Glory to the Holy Spirit,
Fount of love and sanctity;
Alleluya! Alleluya!
To the Triune Majesty. Used With Tune: LUX EOI

can feel the Spirit, hear the call,
and find the way, the life, the truth,
revealed in Jesus, freed for all.
