Hark! the Voice of Love and Mercy

Author: Jonathan Evans Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 549 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Hark! the voice of love and mercy sounds aloud from Calvary; see, it tears the temple curtain, shakes the earth and veils the sky: “It is finished, it is finished!”-- hear the dying Savior cry. 2 Finished--all the types and shadows of the ceremonial law; God fulfills what he has promised-- death and hell shall reign no more: “It is finished, it is finished!”-- Christ has opened heaven's door. 3 Saints and angels shout his praises, his great finished work proclaim; all on earth, and all in heaven, join to bless Emmanuel’s name: "Alleluia, alleluia, endless glory to the Lamb!"

Crowns become the Victor's brow. 2. Crown the Savior, angels, crown him, rich the triumphs Jesus brings; in the seat of pow'r enthrone him while the vault of heaven rings: Crown him! Crown him! Crown him! Crown him! Crown the Savior King of kings. 3. Sinners in derision crowned him, mocking thus the Savior's claim; saints and angels throng around him, own his title, praise his name. Crown him! Crown him! Crown him! Crown him! Spread abroad the Victor's fame. 4. Hark, those bursts of acclamation, hark, those loud triumphant chords, Jesus takes the highest station, oh, what joy the sight affords. Crown him! Crown him! Crown him! Crown him!
