Author: Anonymous; Edward Perronet, 1726-1792 Hymnal: The Book of Praise #363 (1997) Meter: 8.6.8.6 with repeat Scripture: Philippians 2:9-11 Lyrics: 1 All hail the power of Jesus' name;
let angels prostrate fall;
bring forth the royal diadem
to crown him, crown him, crown him,
crown him Lord of all.
2 Crown him, ye martyrs of your God,
who from his altar call;
extol the Stem of Jesse's Rod,
and crown him, crown him, crown him,
crown him Lord of all.
3 Ye seed of Israel's chosen race,
ye ransomed from the fall,
hail him who saves you by his grace,
and crown him, crown him, crown him,
crown him Lord of all.
4 Sinners, whose love can ne'er forget
the wormwood and the gall,
go spread your trophies at his feet,
and crown him, crown him, crown him,
crown him Lord of all.
5 Let every tribe and every tongue,
responsive to the call,
lift high the universal song,
and crown him, crown him, crown him,
crown him Lord of all. Topics: Descants and Fauxbourdons; God in Christ; Jesus Christ Name of Languages: English Tune Title: MILES LANE
