Crown Him with Many Crowns
Author: Godfrey Thring; Matthew Bridges Hymnal: Voices United #211 (1996) Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Topics: Easter 6 Year B 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 peace,
whose power a sceptre sways
from pole to pole, that wars may cease,
absorbed in prayer and praise.
His reign shall know no end;
and round his piercèd feet
fair flowers of Paradise extend
their fragrance ever sweet.
4 Crown him the Lord of love;
behold his hands and side,
rich wounds yet visible above,
in beauty glorified.
All hail, Redeemer, hail!
for thou hast died for me:
thy praise shall never, never fail
throughout eternity. Languages: English Tune Title: DIADEMATA

The Head That Once Was Crowned
Author: Thomas Kelly Hymnal: Voices United #190 (1996) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Easter 6 Year B First Line: The head that once was crowned with thorns Lyrics: 1 The head that once was crowned with thorns
is crowned with glory now;
a royal diadem adorns
the mighty victor’s brow.
2 The joy of all who dwell above,
the joy of all below,
to whom he manifests his love
and grants his name to know.
3 To them the cross with all its shame,
with all its grace is given,
their name an everlasting name,
their joy the joy of heaven.
4 They suffer here with Christ below,
they reign with him above,
their profit and their joy to know
the mystery of his love.
5 The cross he bore is life and health,
though shame and death to him,
his people's hope, his people's wealth,
their everlasting theme. Languages: English Tune Title: ST MAGNUS
