Crown Him with Many Crowns

Author: Matthew Bridges; Godfrey Thring Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Appears in 814 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.

"Behold the Way!"

Author: John Cennick Appears in 787 hymnals Topics: Christ Ascension of First Line: Jesus, my All, to heaven is gone Lyrics: 1 Jesus, my All, to heaven is gone, He whom I fix my hopes upon; His track I see, and I'll pursue The narrow way till him I view. 2 The way the holy prophets went, The road that leads from banishment, The King's highway of holiness, I'll go for all his paths are peace. 3 This is the way I long had sought, And mourned because I found it not; My grief, my burden, long had been Because I could not cease from sin. 4 The more I strove against its power, I sinned and stumbled but the more; Till late I heard my Saviour say, "Come hither, soul, I am the Way!" 5 Lo! glad I come; and thou, dear Lamb, Shalt take me to thee as I am, Nothing but sin I thee can give; Nothing but love shall I receive. 6 Then will I tell, to sinners round, What a dear Saviour I have found; I'll point to thy redeeming blood, And say, "Behold the way to God!"

Backward with humble shame we look

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 16 hymnals Topics: Ascension of Christ Lyrics: Backward with humble shame we look On our original; How is our nature dashed and broke In our first father's fall! To all that's good averse and blind, But prone to all that's ill What dreadful darkness veils our mind! How obstinate our will! [Conceived in sin, O wretched state! Before we draw our breath The first young pulse begins to beat Iniquity and death. How strong in our degen'rate blood The old corruption reigns, And, mingling with the crooked flood, Wanders through all our veins.] [Wild and unwholesome as the root Will all the branches be; How can we hope for living fruit From such a deadly tree? What mortal power from things unclean Can pure productions bring? Who can command a vital stream From an infected spring?] Yet, mighty God! thy wondrous love Can make our nature clean, While Christ and grace prevail above The tempter, death, and sin. The second Adam shall restore The ruins of the first; Hosannah to that sovereign power That new-creates our dust! Scripture: Romans 5:12
