Author: Matthew Bridges, 1800-1894; Godfrey Thring, 1823-1903 Appears in 798 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 27:35-50 Lyrics: 1 Crown him with many crowns,
The Lamb upon his throne:
Hark, how the heav'nly anthem drowns
All music but its own!
Awake, my soul, and sing
Of him who set us free,
And hail him as our heav'nly 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 lords,
Who over all does reign,
Who once on earth, th'incarnate Word,
For ransomed sinners slain,
Now lives in realms of light,
Where saints with angels sing
Their songs before him day and night,
Their God, Redeemer, King. Topics: Ascension of the Lord; Christ the King; Easter Season; Holy Week Passion Sunday; Holy Week Good Friday; Jesus; New Life/New Creation; Praise Used With Tune: DIADEMATA

There Is a Green Hill Far Away
Author: Cecil Frances Alexander Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 695 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 27:32-56 Lyrics: 1 There is a green hill far away,
outside a city wall,
where the dear Lord was crucified,
who died to save us all.
2 We may not know, we cannot tell,
what pains he had to bear;
but we believe it was for us
he hung and suffered there.
3 He died that we might be forgiv'n,
he died to make us good,
that we might go at last to heav'n,
saved by his precious blood.
4 There was no other good enough
to pay the price of sin;
he only could unlock the gate
of heav'n, and let us in.
5 O dearly, dearly has he loved,
and we must love him too,
and trust in his redeeming blood,
and try his works to do. Topics: Holy Week; Christ--Atonement; Christ--Love of; Christ--Sacrifice of; Christian year--Holy Week; Love for Christ Used With Tune: GREEN HILL

He Died! The Great Redeemer Died
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674–1748 Appears in 643 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 27:35-51 Lyrics: 1. He died! The great Redeemer died,
And Israel’s daughters wept around.
A solemn darkness veiled the sky;
A sudden trembling shook the ground.
2. Come, Saints, and drop a tear or two
For him who groaned beneath your load;
He shed a thousand drops for you,
A thousand drops of precious blood.
3. Here’s love and grief beyond degree;
The Lord of glory died for men.
But lo! what sudden joys were heard!
The Lord, though dead, revived again.
4. The rising Lord forsook the tomb.
In vain the tomb forbade him rise.
Cherubic legions guard him home
And shout him welcome to the skies. Topics: Easter; Jesus Christ Savior; Plan of Salvation; Resurrection; Sacrament Used With Tune: OFFERING

Hail, O Galilean King!
You have suffered to release us,
Hope, salvation, joy to bring.
Hail, O agonizing Savior,
bearer of our sin and shame;
by your merits we find favor;
life is given through your name.
2 Paschal Lamb, by God appointed,
all our sins on you were laid;
by almighty love anointed,
you have full atonement made.
All your people are forgiven
through the virtue of your blood;
opened is the gate of heaven;
we are reconciled to God.
3 Jesus! Heav'nly hosts adore you,
seated at your Father's side.
Crucified this world once saw you;
now in glory you abide.
There for sinners you are pleading,
And our place you now prepare,
ever for us interceding,
till in glory we appear.
4 Worship, honor, pow'r and blessing
you are worthy to receive;
loudest praises without ceasing,
right it is for us to give.

all your noblest anthems raise,
help us sing our Savior's merits,
help to chant Immanuel's praise. Topics: Lent; Christ--Adoration and praise; Christ--Atonement; Christ--Intercessor; Christ--Lamb of God; Christ--Substitute, our; Christian year--Lent Used With Tune: CASSEL

Beneath the Cross of Jesus
Author: Elizabeth Cecilia Clephane Meter: 7.6.8.6.8.6.8.6 Appears in 525 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 27:32-56 Lyrics: 1 Beneath the cross of Jesus
I long to take my stand;
the shadow of a mighty rock
within a weary land,
a home within the wilderness,
a rest upon the way,
from the burning of the noontide heat
and burdens of the day.
2 Upon the cross of Jesus,
my eye by faith can see
the very dying form of one
who suffered there for me.
And from my contrite heart, with tears,
two wonders I confess:
the wonder of his glorious love
and my unworthiness.
3 The shadow of your cross, Lord,
be my abiding place;
I ask no other sunshine
than the sunshine of your face;
content to let the world go by,
to know no gain nor loss,
my sinful self my only shame,
my glory all, your cross. Topics: Lent; Christian year--Lent; Humility Used With Tune: ST. CHRISTOPHER

Thou Didst Leave Thy Throne
Author: Emily E. S. Elliott Meter: Irregular Appears in 417 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 27 First Line: Thou didst leave thy throne and thy kingly crown Refrain First Line: O come to my heart, Lord Jesus Lyrics: 1 Thou didst leave thy throne and thy kingly crown
when thou camest to earth for me;
but in Bethlehem's home was there found no room
for thy holy nativity.
Refrain:
O come to my heart, Lord Jesus,
there is room in my heart for thee.
2 Heaven's arches rang when the angels sang,
proclaiming thy royal degree;
but in lowly birth thou didst come to earth,
and in great humility: (Refrain)
3 The foxes found rest and the birds their nest
in the shade of the forest tree;
but thy couch was the sod, O thou Son of God,
in the desert of Galilee: (Refrain)
4 Thou camest, O Lord, with the living Word
that should set thy people free;
but with mocking scorn, and with crown of thorn,
they bore thee to Calvary: (Refrain)
5 When the heavens shall ring, and the angels sing,
at thy coming to victory,
let thy voice call me home, saying, "Yet there is room,
there is room at my side for thee."
My heart shall rejoice, Lord Jesus,
when thou comest and callest for me!
