Evening Song

Son of man, they crown, they crown him, Son of God, thy own, they own him, With his name the palace rings. 4 Blessing, honor, without measure, Heavenly riches, earthly treasure, Lay we at his blessed feet: Poor the praise that now we render, Loud shall be our voices yonder, When before his throne we meet.
