Crown Him with Many Crowns

Author: Godfrey Thring; Matthew Bridges Hymnal: Voices United #211 (1996) Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Topics: Heaven(s)/Paradise 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 sceptre sways from pole to pole, that wars may cease, absorbed in prayer and praise. His reign shall know no end; and round his piercèd feet fair flowers of Paradise extend their fragrance ever sweet. 4 Crown him the Lord of love; behold his hands and side, rich wounds yet visible above, in beauty glorified. All hail, Redeemer, hail! for thou hast died for me: thy praise shall never, never fail throughout eternity. Languages: English Tune Title: DIADEMATA

Come, we that love the Lord

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #II.XXX (1766) Topics: Paradise on Earth Lyrics: [1 Come, we that love the Lord, And let your Joys be known; Join in a Song with sweet Accord, And thus surround the Throne. 2 The Sorrows of the Mind Be banish'd from the Place! Religion never was design'd To make our Pleasure less.] 3 Let those refuse to sing That never knew our God, But Fav'rites of the Heav'nly King May speak their Joys abroad. [4 The God that rules on high, And thunders when he please, That rides upon the stormy Sky, And manages the Seas.] 5 This awful God is ours, Our Father and our Love, Thou shall send down his heav'nly Pow'rs To carry us above. 6 There we shall see his Face, And never, never sin; There, from the Rivers of thy Grace, Drink endless Pleasures in. 7 Yes, and before we rise To that immortal State, The Thoughts of such amazing Bliss. Should constant Joys create. 8 The Men of Grace have found Glory begun below; Celestial Fruits on earthly Ground From Faith and Hope may grow. 9 The Hill of Sion yields A thousand sacred Sweets, Before we reach the heav'nly Fields, Or walk the golden Streets. 10 Then let our Songs abound, And ev'ry Tear be dry; We're marching through Immanuel's Ground, To fairer Worlds on high.
