Crown Him with Many Crowns

Author: Matthew Bridges; Godfrey Thring Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Appears in 802 hymnals Topics: Adoration; Adoration; Ascension and Reign; Christ Ascension; Worship 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 love; behold his hands and side, rich wounds, yet visible above, in beauty glorified; no angels in the sky can fully bear that sight, but downward bends their burning eye at mysteries so bright. 4 Crown him the Lord of years, the potentate of time, creator of the rolling spheres, ineffably sublime. All hail, Redeemer, hail! for thou hast died for me; thy praise shall never, never fail throughout eternity. Worship and Rejoice, 2003

Our God is near to help us, Our God is strong to save; The Lord alone is able To ransom from the grave. 3 Sing unto God, ye nations, Ye kingdoms of the earth; Sing unto God, all people, And praise His matchless worth. He rides in royal triumph Upon the heav'ns abroad; He speaks, the mountains tremble Before the voice of God. 4 All glory, might, and honor Ascribe to God on high; His arm protects His people Who on His pow'r rely.

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.

Hark! the choirs of angel voices joyful alleluias sing, and the gates on high are opened to receive their heavenly King. 2 He who on the cross did suffer, he who from the grave arose, he has vanquished sin and Satan, he by death has spoiled his foes. While he lifts his hands in blessing, he is parted from his friends. While their eager eyes behold him, in the cloud the Lord ascends. 3 You have raised our human nature on the clouds to God's right hand; there we sit in heavenly places, there with you in glory stand. Jesus reigns, adored by angels; man with God is on the throne! Mighty Lord, in your ascension we by faith can see our own. Scripture: Psalm 24:7-10 Used With Tune: REX GLORIAE
