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.

and rose victorious in the strife
for those he came to save.

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. Used With Tune: DIADEMATA

fix in us thy humble dwelling,
all thy faithful mercies crown.
Jesus, thou art all compassion,
pure, unbounded love thou art;
visit us with thy salvation,
enter every trembling heart.

let us all thy life receive;
suddenly return, and never,
nevermore thy temples leave.

serve thee as thy hosts above,
pray, and praise thee, without ceasing,
glory in thy perfect love.

pure and spotless let us be;
let us see thy great salvation
perfectly restored in thee,
changed from glory into glory,
till in heaven we take our place,
till we cast our crowns before thee,

Hosanna, Loud Hosanna

the little children sang;
through pillared court and temple,
the lovely anthem rang.

close folded to His breast,
the children sang their praises,
the simplest and the best.

among the joyful crowd;
the victor palm branch waving,
with singing clear and loud.
The Lord of earth and heaven
rode on in lowly state,
nor scorned that little children
should on His bidding wait.
3 "Hosanna in the highest!"
that ancient song we sing;
for Christ is our Redeemer,
the Lord of heaven, our King.
O may we ever praise Him
with heart and life and voice,
and in His blissful presence
eternally rejoice. Scripture: Matthew 21:8-9 Used With Tune: ELLACOMBE

Songs of Praise the Angels Sang
Author: James Montgomery Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 545 hymnals Topics: Praise and Adoration-Jesus Christ Lyrics: 1 Songs of praise the angels sang,
heaven with alleluias rang,
when creation was begun,
when God spoke and it was done.
2 Songs of praise awoke the morn
when the Prince of Peace was born;
songs of praise arose when He
captive led captivity.
3 Heaven and earth must pass away!
Songs of praise shall crown that day!
God will make new heavens and earth;
songs of praise shall hail their birth.
4 And shall Christians fail to sing
till on earth Christ come as King?
No; the Church delights to raise
psalms and hymns and songs of praise.
5 Saints below, with heart and voice,
still in songs of praise rejoice,
learning here, by faith and love,
songs of praise to sing above.
